Today we began week 6 of our marathon training. It is hard to believe that we have already been training for 5 weeks. We are really starting to see some great progress during our runs, and continue to surprise ourselves with how well we have been running.
Today’s run was only 4 miles, and it was a good thing because the weather was back to being hot and humid. We are still hoping that this hot and humid summer we have been having will start to break soon. We started our run around 4:15 pm and it was HOT! It was 91 degrees with 84% humidity and we felt every single bit of that. Due to the extreme heat, we had to slow our run down, especially after the first couple of miles. It was just too hot! Despite the heat, it was still a pretty good run and we felt good afterwards.
We finished our 4 mile run in 46:13, which is an 11:33 pace per mile. A little slower than we had been running 4 miles, but sometimes the weather just slows you down a little bit. Overall, it wasn’t a bad run and we still got a good work out in.
Today's run summary:
Miles---4
Time---46:13
Cool Down---23:87
Total Time---70:00
Total Calories---877
Total Miles Run---111
Next run: Wednesday, August 18---6 miles!
Thanks for following our journey!
