So after two weeks of being sick and not running a step, I hit the road again yesterday... but I had one important thing to do first. After thinking I was breaking land-speed records at a 10:30 pace and running 4 mile jaunts with ease, the time clocks at a few recent races made it apparent that I was living in a world that we'll call "Becky's Fantasy Running Land". It became very clear to me that I was lacking one thing (no, not my grip on reality) - a properly calibrated Nike+ sensor. So yesterday afternoon, I warmed up and hit the treadmill for a quarter of a mile to track and calibrate my distances properly. What did I discover, you ask? Well, suffice it to say that I do not run a 10:30 mile. On a good day, I run an 11:40 mile. On a normal day.... 12:05.
4 miles tomorrow for me. At the rate I'm going, that'll take me just about an hour.
Please send Casey your love and support - she's running the Hudson Mohawk 1/2 on Sunday!!
