Notes
This treadmill run is all screwed up. Did 3 miles at 12:00 mpm but sped it up to 10:00 mpm for the last quarter mile. Didn't start my Garmin until the start of mile 2 and then forgot to turn it off afterward. See what happens??? Not running for two weeks totally screws me up. Didn't even put all the right stuff in my bag. The treadmill said I was doing a 12:00 pace, but my Garmin (using the footpod) said 11:27. I'll just record the slower of the two. My heart rate was 131 before I even started.
Just wanted to make sure I could run 3 miles without keeling over. I introduced my workmate to running and he is running his first 5k this Saturday. So, I registered for it and thought I would just run with him for support. His expected pace is between 11 and 12 mpm. It will be kind of interesting. He has never run outside before -- just on treadmills. Curious to see what he thinks of the big wide world out there. Only problem is that after this balmy weather we've been having the expected temperature will be around 22.
