All By Myself

Today I ended up running by myself because Rob was feeling under the weather. It was very weird at first to be running by myself because I was so used to having someone else running beside me. It took about the first half mile to get used to being by myself, but once I got into a rhythm I just took off, and had the best 5 mile run I have ever had.

I started my run a lot later than I like to, around 6:45 pm, but so glad that I ended up going out for my run. I felt amazing after my run! At run time it was between 75 and 80 degrees and the humidity was around 60 percent. It was actually a good time to run because the sun was going down, so most of the sun was shaded, which makes the run a little bit cooler.

It was a great run!

Here is a breakdown of the splits:

Miles 1-4: 41:07:00
Mile 5: 9:33:58

I set another new PR the last mile is the fast mile I have ever run by myself and it was the fastest 5 miles I have ever run.

I finished my 5 mile run in 50:40:58, which is a 10:08 minute per mile pace. Crazy! I felt great after the run. I ran with new shoes, which I am sure had something to do with how good I felt as well. I felt like I was flying! :) The new shoes felt amazing. I didn’t realize how worn my other shoes were getting until I ran in the new shoes.

Great run!
