It was very cool this evening, overcast and 60 degrees with a hint of possible mist or sprinkling. Not that I minded too much since I ran a 24-minute tempo run during the 6-mile outing. I'm enjoying the new route down Shoal Creek since it's not as busy with traffic as Flintlock, and the hills aren't as bad either. There was a slight breeze, but again, no complaints here. Looks like the half-marathon on Saturday morning should be nice and cool as well.
My tempo was about 8:30 per mile at spots, and for most of the time I was running faster it seemed possible to run that way for quite a while. But by the time I finished I could tell that if I want to run that fast in a half-marathon my body still needs some conditioning. And hey, isn't that what I'm doing?
