I usually dread Wednesdays because of the tempo run -- the only workout I cannot seem to master during this cycle. But I could look forward to this Wednesday for two reasons. One, it was an easy six miles and I was feeling quite confident after my speed workout yesterday. Two, my mom was coming home after three weeks away. I wouldn't normally put this in my blog, but I moved and started my career while she was away so I found it fitting that she would be included today.
Now for the reason all three of you are reading this post -- the run. I must admit, I only really read the philosophy or read more in-depth to the Hansons' plan a week ago. I might regret this come race day, which is now 51 days away, but I can't dwell on it. I know that for my goal marathon (3:30) that my easy runs should be anywhere between 9:02-9:42 average pace. Give or take 10-15 seconds either faster or slower, I feel like I hit that most of the time and Wednesday wasn't any different. I ran an average 9:57 during the six miles. It really was an easy run in all definitions and I felt great, especially when I came back to my mom's house and she was just getting out of the car coming home from the airport.
