Taking it a little easy after the 13 miler Saturday.

1030G080

Ran 5.01 miles at 9:50 AP in 49:13.

State Street to New Haven at 5:15pm

I was going for 9:50s and stayed consistent running no faster.

It was hot.

I am trying to stick with Easy running and keeping the intensity at the Easier side of the Easy range.  Got that done today.

Trying to focus on not going harder than necessary to accomplish the goals of the run.

State Street to Saint Barnabas

Lower back pain past couple weeks.  Taking it easy this week by running Easy pace versus not running at all.  Was going to cut the run short but stuck with it telling myself if it were a race, I would not stop short.  Took my Camel Bak along on this run to hydrate.

Ran 8 miles at 1pm at 9:48/mile pace.

Three of the six races I ran this year I ran with my son Christian.
