Had a good week of running last week. Ran 4 miles on the treadmill on Monday, 4.8 miles outside on Tuesday and ran 6.2 miles on the treadmill on Friday. Felt great during the tread mill runs, but felt terrible running outside. This is starting to be a pattern. I can't seem to run outside very well lately, but I am tearing it up on the treadmill. Friday's run was my best ever. I ran 6.2 miles in 44.18 (although the treadmill read 6.2 miles in 43:48 - the calibration is slightly off) for an average pace of 7:07 per mile. I ran the first mile in 7:52 just getting warmed up. I hit 4 miles at 38:50, pushing 9.7 mile/hr in the last half mile. Slowed down to catch my breath in mile #5 and increased back up to 9.4 miles/hr for the last half mile again.
My Ipod Nano is acting funny - when I ended the run, I did not get the summary I had anticipated or the acknoledgement that I achieved my fastest run for the third straight workout. When I tried to look back at my history it showed that I only ran 3.25 miles. The Ipod also shows that I have no saved runs. When I plug the Ipod into my laptop and synch it up, it clearly shows my last run being 6.2 miles. Very odd. I will have to go to the forums to see what is the issue.
Started to read Sway by Ori and Rom Brafman this weekend. I love it. More than haflway done with this short 200 page book. The stories and the studies that they site are all very intriuging. I also appreciate the segways between topics - very well written, easy to follow, and fast paced.
