OK, so Bill and I always run this one stretch in Riverside Park. It is my easy run and I always feel like a loser when I do it because it is such a short distance that it is almost not worth putting my running clothes on. However, when I pretty much don't feel like running I feel like running this is better than not running at all.
We FINALLY mapped it out on mapmyrun (because I keep forgetting to charge my Garmin) and found out that it is more mileage than I thought. Hurrah! For some reason, I feel like 2.88 miles is much more worth the run than the 2 miles I thought it was.
It also helped because Bill kept figuring out our times based on 2 miles and it just seemed so SLOW. This made me sad, because I felt like we were going fast. Like, it was winding me.
Turns out, we were averaging a 7:59 pace. And that was with some walking when my shoulder cramped up. That makes me feel a LOT better.
This weekend I told Bill we should aim for a "long" 4 miles.
Haha. I love the off-season.
