Cool Running for the week of December 3, 2006

Good morning runners! Hope you're all fired up for another great week of running! Not many days left in this year, so gear up and finish strong!

Monday, 6.3 mile run before work. Cold front came through and brought mega wind ... ugh .. hate that! Let's hope the winds die down before next Sunday's half marathon!

10 yesterday, my first ever 10 race. Bearing in mind all of the distances I have done this year, I was slightly concerned how to pace myself. I had 4 objectives on the day

a) to not be last (hasnt hapened yet)
b) to beat other men in my age group
c) To break the hour
d) to beat my friend.

I did them all, I finished in 56:46. It was a two lapped race, and at the halfway mark my friend was about 30 seconds ahead of me, but I finished the stronger and ended up beating him by just over 2 minutes. Very happy with that.

And obviously, happy with a PB.

Just did 1.5 miles today. I went out at lunchtime with that girl from my office who is trying to get into running. We got halfway round and then had to stop as she was suffering with a chronic stitch.
