Running with Clarise

Date: 04/16/2009

Today's run:

What a beautiful day to run! Sunny and 60s.

OMG! Next time I need to take note on Clarise's workout more carefully. Thought we where running for 45 - 50 minutes... NOT.

Time Taken: 01:12:15
Route: Whole foods to Thompson
Total Distance: 7.65 mi.
Pace: 09:24 (avg)

Things to remember next time I run distance. 1) Don't go out fast the first mile. Go out slower 10+ m/m 2) Don't take Excederin 3) get a better nights sleep. 4) Get a Garmin (as if I had the money for one!)

I walked 4 or 5 times for less then 30 seconds. One time for 1 minute before I turned around. (Out and back on the Sammamish Trail)

Shoes: I don't like running on the trail with the Newtons for some reason. My calves hurt me the last 1.5 miles but think that is due to dehydration. I had a rhythm going the first 3.5+ miles then I realized I had another 3.5+ miles to go back home! Blown rhythm.

That last mile I must have looked like I was about to pass out!

I'm glad I did it. Thanks Clarise.

  1. Garmins are a good investment. I got mine (an older one) off ebay for $130.
