10 miles - I needed today's run. I have been stressed out a lot lately. Something about not having a job, studying full-time for the bar, and just having too many side projects all at once has warn me down. So, I decided to go out and run at about 4:15pm. I wanted to simply run for the fun of running and not worry about my pace too much. I think I often rely too heavily on my watch and I wanted nothing to do with it today. I left my house and did the first half of my usual route up to Brayden and Ashley's house. I felt great and knew that I was holding a good pace even up the decent 1/2 mile hill before their house. I looked at my watch each mile when it would buzz and beep and I was surprised at my pace. I focused on not changing my running at all based on the mile split that I saw and I just kept on running. After Brayden and Ashley's I turned north and went to 45th south and then west on 45th. This was a nice decline so I just kept running at what felt like a pretty comfortable pace. I hung a left to go south on 13th east and made it home right at 9 miles. I did a one mile cool down around the neighborhood and called it a night. I needed to get out and just enjoy a good run without worrying about my pace and everything else. It felt good to simply run! | 1 | 7:44.0 | 1.00 | 7:44 | | 2 | 7:23.0 | 1.00 | 7:23 | | 3 | 7:16.2 | 1.00 | 7:16 | | 4 | 7:14.1 | 1.00 | 7:14 | | 5 | 7:10.9 | 1.00 | 7:11 | | 6 | 7:05.6 | 1.00 | 7:06 | | 7 | 6:41.0 | 1.00 | 6:41 | | 8 | 6:52.7 | 1.00 | 6:53 | | 9 | 6:42.8 | 1.00 | 6:43 |
