Week 6 starting early!

Today would normally be a rest day for me, but since the storm is coming I decided to run today and make tomorrow a rest day instead.

My run started out better than expected with a pace under the 9 minute per mile mark. There was lots of wind to keep me cool and no direct sun. The run was 3 miles and my first half was a breeze lol. On the way back on the second half the wind was in my face providing lots of resistance and each stride was a fight (at least to keep the pace I was on).  

My first mile was at an 8:54 and my last mile at a 9:49 and I definitely felt the difference. 

I was very pleased with the run overall and happy that I took advantage of the weather being in my favor on a rest day. Tomorrow I'll be stuck inside due to the hurricane and then hopefully back on schedule with my Wednesday run. If the weather doesn't allow for it I'll end up doing some sort of cross training indoors.

For all of those that may be in the hurricane's path stay safe!

20 sessions down and 68 more to go!
