That's what I've been doing to. Trying to keep it in the 8:00 min to 7:00 range. But I can only keep it up for 2-3 miles....
kinda hard to do unless you routinely run 7 to 7.30pace.
someone here ran a half with times ranging in the 8-8.45pace times last year

Sweet thanks.. Yea, I didnt even know about the Garmin Connect thing. They shoulda sent me an email or something lol
Gonna try 5 miles again today.. See how it goes.. Im definitely getting faster. Wonder if it's because my endurance is increasing or if it's because Im down to 16lbs from when I started running.. got a better power to weigh ratio now

Tour de Palm Springs 104 mile ride: DONE. 6:04 ride time/17mph average with an extremely crowded course. Had to slow to a crawl alot. Overall a great ride. Bring on the half mary!
104?! Awesome!
I did a ride today... about a FIFTH of what you did and I was hurtin'. Averaged about 17 on the way out, peaked at 23 on the flats... but the ten miles back? I could hardly break 6... 10 miles of headwind and crosswind that brought me to a stop a couple times, just hovering against the wind.
What was the terrain like for your ride? How much was hills? how much wind to fight?

Good work!

Do EEET. So much better. Foam roller is awesome, even though i've never been able to get my whole ITB w/o shooting off it in pain. I get a good 2/3rds of it though, and have started using the one in the gym when I can't get to mine at home. About to order an office roller too!
Another 3.x miles down for me today. My running partners at work picked up a lot of speed while I was out with leg issues... since coming back i've been stuck firmly in the high 5mph range, and not gaining back to where I was before the injury. (6.2 avg, peaking at like 6.5/6) Kinda sucks, but I just make sure that I stay out longer/run farther since they pace way ahead of me now.

2nd 20 miler of the year today. Felt like nothing. Coached basketball for my kids and then lifted with the wife after the run. Put me @ 140 so far for February, which more than doubled my Feb total last year. Now if they would just stop changing the Boston qualifying times

Eventually your body just gets used to it. Drove me nuts to just lift with the wife today. Legs were good to go.
