Day # 1: Lets get it Started

My training started this evening. I went out for a nice long and easy 7 mile run in Waltham. The 7 mile that I traditionally run starts out very flat until mile 4, where there is a long rolling hill for over 1.8 miles. Finally, the last mile or so is a sharp downhill with a flat finishing stretch.

I finished the 6 mile run in 53:48 in brutal humidity, with temps in the mid 80s.

Weight = 171

Yeah, it turns out the run is closer to about 6.5 miles after I re-measured today. Ouch. I guess that leaves me in the 8 minute range.
