Nice Running Weather? Already!?!?


Yes, it's true. I ran a nice, easy four-mile recovery run on Saturday, in shorts and a t-shirt! It was in the mid-50's! Check my Garmin stats on the run here.

Then on Sunday, I ran a medium-long aerobic 12-mile run, finishing out my first week on the Pete Pfitzinger 18-week plan. Again, mid-50's, and again, shorts and a t-shirt...and sunglasses! Amazing for the first week of February. You can see my Garmin stats for this run here.

Both runs were at 10-20% slower than my goal marathon pace, which will be 7:45-7:50 at Newport in June (knock on wood) by the by. Actually, felt pretty good on the 12-miler - so far, so good.
