Two in a Row

15 Sep 2003 07:15PM — 4.0 miles — Mizuno Wave Creation

Today is the first time I've run back2back days in quite a while. I started off a bit later than usual and since the sun is going down earlier, it was cooler. However, that didn't stop everyone else from going, too, so I had to park in an alternate location! Due to the parking, I didn't take a water break until about 2.5 miles into my 4 mile run.

By the half-way point, I was feeling good so I increased my pace a bit and continued to push into the water stop. After the break, I eased back into my pace and pushed until the end. By the end of the run, my knees were starting to ache as were my lower legs and ankles. I think I'll be careful on the pace since I haven't really built much of a base this season.

The weather is starting to get *really* nice!
