Half Marathon Training: Day 7

Day 7 called for an easy 2-3 miles. Since I had just done 4 miles less than 24 hours ago, I decided that 2 miles would probably be my better option. It was. My quads and shins were not happy with me today. However, I made the best of the run that I could. The weather was crazy nice (I wore a tank top!) and it really was a great day for an easy run. 



Actually, even though my legs were hurting I had my best pace yet. I didn't push it either. I just went with what my body wanted to do and was able to handle with some walk breaks. It was really shocking when I uploaded my data and saw some of my best paces. If you remember from Training Day 2 I was doing a 16:34 Average Pace. In just a short amount of time I've gotten down to 15:28. It just goes to show that you won't be slow forever and you WILL improve the more you stick with it. 

The plan for the rest of the day is to finish up some cleaning/organizing, Financial Peace University from 3pm-5pm, and then rest and relaxation with the hubby and the kiddo. Very much looking forward to that. 

Happy Sunday, everyone.
