Morning run, no wind, temp 48'

Nice morning for a run.  I've been doing 2 quarter mile sprints once a day during my runs to let my legs know I want some speed.  The fastest I've been doing the quarters is 75 seconds.  Anyway, this morning my body finally found the next gear and I ran the 2 quarter mile sprints  on a down sloping section in 70 seconds each.  I really had to push to get to that speed but it felt great.  In High school I would average 68 seconds for a whole mile now I only get 70 seconds on a down sloping road, running just a quarter mile.  Anyway 70 seconds felt really fast but I'm hoping to get it to 65 if my mind and body will work together. 

Distance 7 miles,  Time 52:18,  Mile avg. - 7:28

 

Noon run, temp 70'

My legs were tired.  I must have used up the fresh legs in the morning.  Took it easy.

Distance 6 miles,  Time 48:24,  Mile avg. - 8:04

Good job on the quarters Terry, that's pretty dang fast. I'm sure you'll get to 65.
