Overall Average Pace:

  • 1 mi warm-up - 10:16

Thoughts:

  • I was happy to finally be able to complete one of these workouts outside instead of on the treadmill. Unfortunately, it is evident that I am not adept at knowing what my paces should feel like as I run.
  • I don't know if I am underestimating my capibilites as a runner because running these paces was pretty easy to complete. I am probably prepared to run a decent half-marathon at this juncture. The marathon distance is still a pretty big question mark.
