Just running around

So, with no marathon until Chicago in October, I'm sort of just enjoying myself during runs. Not training for anything. Not worrying about pace or how long I go.

 

Just being a lazy runner.

 

Today, I decided I needed a little pep and decided to run "steady state" for as much as the 7-mile route around Town Lake as I could hold.

 

After a 1-mile warm up in 8:30, the rest of the paces looked like this:

 

1 - 6:44

2 - 6:42

3 - 7:23 -- big hill up Riverside

4 - 6:50

5 - 6:52

6 - 6:44

 

I actually started feeling better during Mile 6, but I guess its because I knew I was almost done. Think I'll incorporate this workout once a week.
