A Cool 7 Miles

Today was another great day for a run. The temperature and humidity were wonderful, especially for a late August day. We started our 7 mile run at 4:45 pm. At run time it was 74 degrees with 69% humidity. This combination made our 7 mile run feel awesome! It was partly cloudy and made some of the run even better.

We finished our 7 mile run in 1:18:56, which is an 11:16 minute per mile pace. We probably could have run it a little faster, and had a couple of quicker splits, but we also didn’t want to run too hard in the beginning knowing that we had 7 miles to run today. Despite a couple of really slow splits, compared to what we had been running, we ended up with a pretty good pace.

Here are our splits for this run:

Mile 1: 11:19:76
Mile 2: 11:05:56
Mile 3: 11:07:25
Mile 4: 11:41:03
Mile 5: 11:59:64
Mile 6: 11:02:33
Mile 7: 10:41:19

Once again our last 2 miles were our fastest, so we finished pretty strong, but could have probably been stronger. I had a small stitch for the last mile, but I was able to run through it. I wish I would have been able to finish a little stronger, but there is always tomorrow.

Still a great run! The runs are getting easier and easier! :)
