In celebration of Fall and Running, RunningLaur gave us the option to complete a virtual 5K or a virtual 5 miler. Being the overachiever that I am (or maybe just because it corresponded nicely to my training) I did both.The 5K happened Tuesday as part of my 4 mile run with a negative split at the end. Backing out the first .9 miles (no way I'm not counting that sweet split at the end) my 5K time was 31:15, an average 10:05 pace - awesome tempo pace. I'm quite pleased with that one
The 5 miler happened Thursday as of my 6 mile easy run (executed as Plan B after bailing when it was dark and cold and early). I hit the 5 mile mark in 59:05, a pace of 11:49 - once again spot on for my target pace for an easy run. FYI, mile 6 was about 12:10 on that uphill climb back home.
So there you have it, a 5K in 31:15 and a 5 miler in 59:05.
Great job on doing both!! :) Have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteSince I have been sick this week I am thinking of doing the 5 miler twice this weekend.. Or better known as a 10 miler.
ReplyDeleteGREAT work!! Glad that you are back in the RUN.
