You know what is really awesome? A f****** fantastic workout! That is how I felt today after a nice day off. Today was a an "easy" six miles but after failing to complete my workout on Monday, I wanted to prove something. I know that a BQ doesn't come in one workout, but man did it feel good to PR during my six mile run.
I usually run in the morning but between staying up late last night to finish a book and then watching Wimbledon this morning, I didn't get started until close to 1:30 p.m. A loop around Belle Isle is about six miles, give or take and today I completed the loop in 51:25. I averaged 8:34 per mile and my best time pace was 6:52. I know it was supposed to be an "easy" six miles, but I wanted to prove to myself that Monday was a little hurdle, not foreshadowing of failure down the road. I might be high on my horse today, but I have to make sure that I am able to go kick six miles in the butt again tomorrow. I'm off to see The Rolling Stones play Comerica Park in Detroit. Happy 22nd birthday and graduation to me!!
