1/13/09 - 5 miles

I was able to get outside for my recovery run this evening. The weather was absolutely gorgeous and I was able to get away from work a little early. When I started my run, the temperature was in the low 70's and the sky was clear. I ran at a recovery pace and felt great throughout the run. I paid close attention to my heartrate and adjusted my pace when necessary to keep my rate in the 150's. I ran the 5 miles in 40:53 which is an 8:11 pace and my average heartrate was 156 bpm.
