Back to Work! I was up at 4:30am so that I could get outside by around 5ish. It was dark, but I wanted to see how comfortable I would be running outside at this hour. It wasn't bad, but I did find myself looking over my shoulder from time to time. I had a little flashlight with me that helped when I ran through the particular dark spots. It was very nice not to feel suffocated by the heat of the sun, although it was still quite warm out there. I could tell because at mile 2, I looked down at my watch using my flashlight and noticed that my arms were already shiny from the sweat. I finished in under 11 minute miles (finally). Since today was day 6 in a row, my plan is to take tomorrow off and run again on Thursday. |
