Running Update Jan 2014
I'm a little over due for an update on my running progress...
Here are my stats for the beginning of 2014:
On the treadmill:
Average comfortable pace: 5.5 mph
Fastest pace I can hold for 2 minutes without needing to stop: 8.0 mph
Recovery pace: 5.0 mph (I'm working on getting this faster, it's up from 4.5)
Typical run length: between 30-45 minutes
Haven't checked my mile lately.
Outside:
Longest run: 6.2 miles with an 10:30 minute mile average, which has held true for all of my longer weekend runs lately. A big improvement over 6 months ago when my long distance runs were at a 12:30 pace.
Running outside this time of year is COLD!
Aches and Pains:
Not too bad lately. I feel a little bit in my left hip on the longer runs, but I'm mostly pain free.
Other interesting news:
I ran a 10k on New Year's Eve with a time of 1:05:13 which put me at a 10:30 pace. Which is awesome especially since the last time I ran a 10k was in 2009 and it took me 1:21:??.
