Notes

Surprising run, especially with a bad head cold. Ran 6 on Monday, then took the next 3 days off to rest & recover. I wanted to get this run in today just so I'll have confidence leading into the Spokane Half Marathon on Oct. 11th. Mission accomplished! I wanted to be under 8:00/mile and got quite a bit under it, even though I was feeling it the last couple of miles. Used my hand-held Nathan water bottle today and didn't really love it. I suppose I'll get used to it, but my arms and hands got tired, even though I switched hands every mile. I'll probably go with my belt for the race. So...2-3 more easy runs next week, then 2-3 days off before the race. I'm looking forward to it!
