Taking it Easy

I have been taking it really easy lately. I've just been going with the flow... with what feels good. No training schedule. No plan. It is a nice change of pace. I feel relaxed. After the Dirty Half this weekend, I will start thinking more seriously about what marathon I would like to do in the fall. I will then revise a new training plan accordingly.

Today
Running - Moderately Long and/or Tempo

8 miles @ 1:15:28 (avg pace 9:26/mi)
First 3.5 at 30:34 (8:42). Second 3.5 at 35:54 (10:15). 1 mile cool-down at 8:59.
A little goofy... my cool-down should have been slower whereas the second half of the tempo should have been faster. Hills? Fatigue? Whatever. It is what it is.
