Pacing... and not back and forth...

So i'd been meaning to write up about our 3 bridge run on saturday pre the storm a la 'tropic thunder' that hit the city...

but since its fresh, i can talk about Tuesday training.

Pacing!

Today's run was central park's lower loops - 3 times around. 1st time round should have been an easy pace- kinda like the long runs - all conversational... 2nd should have been 10-15 seconds shorter, and 3rd was to be 20-25 seconds shorter than the 2nd.



i dont have a watch.

hahahah.

so i guess there that goes. we did the full 5.1 miles in 56 minutes though. (or was it 54...?)

aiy.

and i was getting a pain in my foot, that i hadn't felt before :

right THERE --->

the left foot, on that side. started up my second loop around, and i just ran through it (and the other random pains - side, etc...)

coach said it was my metatarsel (english?), and i should ice it, and chill if the pain stays...

i was cool walking to the train station, but then i hit the STAIRS.

*ow.*

so anyway...that's that.

considering my run's in SF, should you New Yorkers care to come support me running, i'll actually be participating in the Queens Half this Sunday. HOLLER !

so this past saturday, we did a 3 bridge run ::

Manhattan :

Williamsburg:

(and back)

Brooklyn :



and the rain didnt even come through til the afternoon... making my charity cookout quite a homey experience...

but it was cool nonetheless!

Brooklyn friendly folk - Hit me for info on our Saturday Brunch!!
