8:00 am and already 17 C

July 6, 2011 Wednesday 45 days to go

Today is going to be a scorcher! Went out for marathon pace run - 7:05/K for 45 minutes with 10 minute warmup and 5 minute cooldown. I played with cadence and lean (not bend) to control my pace. I tried to get my cadence consistent to 85 then control lean so I was running an average of 7:00/K. I discovered that if I didn't pay attention, I would slow down to about 7:14/K then just a bit of lean would take me back to 6:55/K. The trick was not to lean too much or I would go down to 6:15/K. This knowledge will probably come in handy towards the end of the marathon when I am really tired.

Weight: 152.5
