5.23m LSD @ Sandhills

5.23 miles @ 9.61 pace w/ avg HR of 155

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1 - 9.77 @ 152

2 - 9.52 @ 156

3 - 9.87 @ 155

4 - 9.87 @ 155 (it's weird when they exactly repeat like that)

5 - 9.10 @ 155

.23 - 2.15 (9.35 pace) @ 160

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This was an LSD run with Jen after I finished mowing/landscaping her mother's lawn. We took it from her mom's driveway up to the Sandhills area loop and then back again. It was Jen's longest run since the baby was born. Worked out great because it was an LSD for me but more of an LT for her as she gets her pace back up. We're going to continue these long partner runs every weekend until Marathon training stars in mid-August. We'll slowly increase the distance until we're doing 8.5 miles in early August, then take a "taper" weekend at 7 before doing the first 8m run of the schedule. By that time, I'm hoping we'll be able to get Jen's speed up to around mine as it usually is.
