AM: 5.15 at 7:10 pace. Was super cold compared to what it has been but I need to get used to it. It was only 40 but the wind chill was in the low 30's. I guess mornings also feel colder because your system isn't ramped up yet. At mile 3 after the first real hill I felt pretty warm. Luckily my morning group meets at a place that I can see from inside the lobby of the computer science building. I think we will naturally start meeting inside from now on. Pace felt brisk but not taxing. 7:30 is definitely more recovery-pace for me right now, but I was cold so I kept pushing the pace until I wasn't cold, and then I held it there. |
