LRM TR #25, Slow and Easy

LRM Miles Trained To Date: 139

With it being a hot 42 degrees and all, I decided to wear just a regular cap and no gloves. That was not wise! While my ears were warm enough, my hands were cold. And my legs are red sticks again. I guess I'll have to wear two layers on bottom until it's swimsuit time...

I took my "retro" MP3 player with me today. I did that so I could have easy access to Jimmy Buffet, since I intended to go as slow and easy as possible. It's loaded with him since my Mexican vacation six months ago. However, I ended up listening to my favorite morning show, and the time just flew by. I guess I probably even went too fast. Oh well - I enjoyed it. www.alice1077.com

I was so happy to be out there! Last night I was thinking about how much I looked forward to this morning's run, and how much I loved running, etc. Those were a far cry from my nasty thoughts during the 20-miler!

Mile 1: 12:14
Mile 2: 12:13
Mile 3: 12:02
Mile 4: 11:41
Total: 48:12
Average: 12:04 per mile

It was a great one. I don't think I'll run again until the 14 mile long run on Saturday. One missed run this week won't kill me!
