2/16/09 - 8 miles

Tonight I was able to get out and run outside. The weather was great although it got dark about half-way through my run. I felt very strong on this run and kept a pretty even pace throughout the run. I ran the 8 miles in 1:04:28 which is an 8:03 pace and my average heartrate was 161 bpm. I miss running outside. The time goes by much more quickly and the cool air is a great change from the hot summer runs that I remember well from my last marathon training.
