4 was on the schedule for today. i started about 10 min earlier than usual and about 5 min into the run i wished i hadn't. it was not that hot (only 78) but it was so humid. it took me about a mile before i could breath right. my lungs, once again felt like they couldn't expand. my legs felt like jello, i guess from the 10 miler the other day. i started off at a good pace but i knew it was too fast the way i was breathing. here are my splits and heart rates at .5 mile increments:
.5= 4.37 154
1.0= 9.33 4.56 170
1.5= 14.37 5.03 170
2.0= 20.02 5.24 169
2.5= 25.12 5.10 166
3.0= 30.23 5.10 166
3.5= 35.33 5.10 167
4.0= 40.22 4.49 172
i pushed it the last mile, especially up the last big hill, so i finished pretty strong, somehow. i was trying to keep a 10 min/mile pace, i was just over at 10:055.
thought of the night: it is getting late, i am tired and on call tomorrow night. good night and God bless.
