I was pretty nervous about today's run and how well I would do on the trail. I don't run outdoors too much, and have spent most of my time this last 2 weeks on the treadmill. I woke up at 6:00 am and went out anyway. I did a short loop around a park to warm up, and actually stretched out my legs a bit, which I need to be doing much better at come marathon day. I then started my stopwatch and headed out for the run. The first half was probably the hardest part, being that I wasn't really all that warmed up and all. By the time I got to the turn-around point at 3 miles, I was feeling pretty well lubricated.
I kept a pace between 10:30 and 12:30, mostly hanging around 11:30 for the run. I watched my heart rate, which never got up too far. I had a little pain in my left foot, and as I am breaking in new shoes, may have gotten a small blister. For the most part though, I felt pretty good for this run. I did a total of 6.3 miles, 6.1 of which was running. It took me about an hour and 15 minutes to complete.
