Week Seven

This last weekend was my 5/10 run. The weather wasn’t too bad, just kinda soupy. I don’t know how else to describe the humidity that hangs all over Florida in the summertime.

Here are my stats for my long run:

Distance: 10 miles
Total time: 2 hours, 12 minutes and 58 seconds
Average pace: 13:18
Best pace: 9:11
Weather: 77* with 90% humidity (feels like 77*) at 0530
Song o' the run: Respect (by Aretha Franklin)

Oh! I meant to add my monthly total: 63 miles for July

This is the point where I start backing off on the number of long runs I do. I find it to be too hard on my knees to run over 10 miles every single weekend, so I push it back to every other weekend now. This Saturday I’ll run 5 miles, but the one after that I’ll run 12…plus I’ll run 6 on that Friday, so a total of 18 miles.

I'm still at $225 for my contributions! I know it's a long way out but if you have a couple of dollars to give, I know the EOD MasterBlasters would appreciate your efforts to help their cause..and so would I! Please donate! =^)

So this week I’m hoping to have some questions to answer…feel free to leave me a comment and I’ll answer pretty much anything! =^)
