3 mile tuesday

Tuesday's are 3 mile runs for awhile (until near the end of October). I was undecided this afternoon if I was going to run this one outside or on the treadmill. Luckily the rain hit just as I was leaving work and the temperature dropped from 100 to 77 degrees! By the time I got home and dressed and back out it climbed back up to 84 but it was still pleasant enough to run, although a little steamy by mile 3.

Overall I am happy with the run. I figure I have plenty of 3-milers ahead to work on my time. I'm pleased with this run mainly because I felt strong despite the heat and overall the time is a good one for me. I may want to work on balancing the splits a bit more like I do on my long runs.


Mile 1: 9:42
Mile 2: 10:25
Mile 3: 10:56
Total Miles: 3
Total Time: 31:00
Avg Mile: 10:21
Max Speed: 7:22 (yeah, probably went out a little fast ;))
