Six Mile Easy Run

Day 2 of a Mile-A-Day Challenge.

The schedule called for a 5 mile easy run and the weather forecast was for the mid to upper 20s this morning.  To my pleasant surprise when I got out there is was quite warmer in the high 30s.  I headed out and was feeling pretty good so I added an extra mile onto my run for a total of 6 miles at an average pace of 8:18.  There was a pretty steady wind to my back running outbound and into my face on the return trip.  Because I was trying to keep my heart rate below 70% it made for a much slower trip coming back.

My splits and heart rate were: 8:11, 132 (50% HRR); 8:02, 148 (61%); 8:19, 150 (62%), 8:20, 148 (61%), 8:21, 153 (61%); 8:41, 156 (66%).

Temperature: Min./Max.: 37.8 °F/39.9 °F
