Group Run - in the rain!
It was raining and I still went. It is good training. If it is raining on the day of my race - I will be somewhat prepared.

Today's run was focused on pacing. We ran 3 lower loops of Central Park (the lower loop is 1.7 miles).
It got a little confusing, because of the accent the coach speaks with. He said to run the first loop as a warm-up pace, then second loop should be 10-15 seconds faster, 3rd loop another 15-20 seconds faster. Then right before we started the first loop he said "run the first loop at marathon pace" - which i did not, and i did not pace very well. I failed.

loop one - 16:22
loop two - 15:46
loop three-15:40

FAILED!

But I felt strong, even though i am still a bit sore from the 17 mile run - which better stop since i gotta run the same amount in a few days.

bye bye cancer!
