Day 119 (4/5): 4 miles / 30:29

What the...?

I don't have any idea how that happened, but I imagine it might have something to do with the guilt I was feeling for my lack of running this week... I guess I thought I'd make up for it with an incredibly fast run... who knew that a 7:37 pace was even a possibility???

At the start my legs were still a little sore, but definitely better than the day before, so I opted to push through it.  My first mile was just shy of 8:00, which had me a little nervous with 3 miles to go.  Then I remembered... last weekend I ran 16 miles... 4 was nothing compared to that.  I wasn't sure if I could keep up with that pace, but I also knew there was no reason not to try. 

So, all in all, I would call today's workout a huge success.  Not only that, but in a few weeks I'm scheduled to run a 4 mile race... and now I know what time to shoot for :)
