Neighborhood Run

Since I had a prior engagement at lunchtime, I couldn't do a long bike ride this morning, so I ran instead. 8.05 miles around my community. The weather was hot (despite starting at 6:45 AM) and my pace was slow. In fact, because of numerous walk-breaks, it took nearly an hour and 21 minutes to finish my run - a 10:01/mile pace. :-P

Hopefully over the next few months I'll be able to get back into running shape ...

This week's workout regimen was unremarkable after Monday's swim:

• Tuesday: 30 minutes on the elliptical trainer
• Wednesday: 45 minutes of an hour-long spin class (yeah, I was late) and then a 1,000 yard swim in 21:39 (splits: 10:52, 10:47)
• Thursday: 33-minutes of a 45-minute spin class (late again) and then another 1,000 yard swim in 21:34 (splits: 10:52, 10:42)
