SHMT, Day 4
Our first long run of the training schedule: six to seven miles.
I chose my friend's AR-Campus Loop run; it was a little over six miles, over very familiar terrain, and wasn't too far from home.
We started at a fast (for us) pace - 9.5 minutes/mile - and it was, evidently, me who was pushing that pace. Who knows where I was getting that but I didn't mind.
We finished strong and enjoyed the scenery; Sharlyn hadn't been through the Ravenna / Cowen Park trail and really liked that path, even though it was uphill part of the way. (My friend Robin advised me to run hills and more hills, as the Seattle Half has some good hills in it. Good advice.)
A day off tomorrow, and then back to the track. This coming week, training-wise, looks just like last week, but our long run next Sunday coincides with the 10K Dawg Dash run - how fortuitous!
