2.0 Mile Run in 15:46




So, a couple of things have happened in thelast week or so. One, the sensor in my nike plus shoes finally died after logging over 150 miles. Second, my old red Nike Plus Moire shoes ripped, not to mention they have over 200 miles of running and are 2 years old. So today, I finally gave in and got a new pair of Nike Plus shoes, and a new nike plus sensor. While at the Nike Outlet today I checked out other shoes, but I ended up seeing a pair of blue Nike Plus Moire's for $39. That price is pretty amazing considering I bought my red ones brand new 2 yrs ago for $110. Needless to say, I couldn't resist and ended up getting them.




So, tonight I hit the road in hopes of running a "fast" 2 mile run. I picked a flat course near the house and took care of the first mile in a real fast time of 7:03. After starting this fast, I backed off considerably and ended up running my 2nd mile in 8:43. It was definitely hot out, and not particularly comfortable, but I'm glad I got out to log a couple more miles. I ended up finishing the 2.00 mile run in 15:46 for an average pace of 7:51/mile.
