So, it seems as if I’ve went and gotten in better running shape by early April than I was at the peak of last season. This weekend, I took two of my sons up to see my dad in German, NY. This is a little town about 30 minutes North of Binghamton. My dad built his own house there since he enjoys the country. It was a great trip and I managed to get in three good runs while the kids played with Grandpa.
I ran 3 miles on Friday, 4 on Saturday, and 5.3 on Easter Sunday. While my pace is still slow (the hills can explain part of that), I think I did pretty well. Here is a table describing each run:
| Date | Distance | Pace | Elevation Gain | Average HR |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4/2 | 3.04 | 255 ft. | 13:48 min/mi | 163 bpm |
| 4/3 | 4.08 | 271 ft. | 14:29 min/mi | 157 bpm |
| 4/4 | 5.36 | 528 ft. | 14.22 min/mi | 154 bpm |
Today, I’m going to rest my running legs and try and get on the bike for a few hours. I still haven’t started to train on the bike or in the pool so I better have at it soon.
