After cool temps and lots of rain for the last month, we're back to normal weather, which in our neck of the woods means hot and humid. Not as hot as it will get this summer, but it's taking some getting used to after the cooler temps we've enjoyed.
I haven't run since the last 5k- my shins and feet have been bothering me and I've opted to let them rest rather than overwork and cause further damage. My shins were a bit achy the first half mile or so, but then everything settled in and I was able to run without too many more problems. Well, other than the on-going problem of being severely undertrained and out of shape.
This race also was the first of two races I ran on Saturday. Last month I ran two races in twelve hours, but one was Friday night and one was Saturday morning. Getting to sleep in between the races makes a difference.
I ran 3.05 miles in 35:18, which came out to a 11:34 pace.
1st mile: 11:07
2nd mile: 12:16
3rd mile: 11:29
11th race in 2016
