Another 3 Miles in the Books!

This morning Mark and I headed to the Monon Trail for a run. In the end I ran, Mark walked. He was tired and his allergies were bothering him. My run went well. I had negative splits which made me happy. I ran in 36:22. I was pleased with that time.

Now that August is coming upon us, I have to run longer runs. This will be my goal over the next week. Philly is not that far away. On the run I thought about that race, and how best to tackle it. I think I need to develop a more even pace. I have slowed my pace this year, and I most likely will not PR in Philly, but I will still like to finish in under 3:00. So in addition to adding miles, I need a bit of speed work. If I can get my pace to sub 12 minutes, then I can do sub 3 hours.

The Monon Trail was lovely early this morning. Plenty of folks were out. Many "good mornings" were spoken.

I am going to try to run with the Frontrunners this week. I would like to meet some folks in Indy, so why not fellow runners?
