With my work schedule its hard to get a lot of miles in. I'm kinda maxed out at 50-55 per week. I've been kicking around the idea of running to work. This being a transitional week & I'm back on weekends I figured it was time for a test run.
If it isn't too bad I'm going to try & run commute a couple times per week. Will give me 7 miles each way. That should let me bump my mileage up. I'd like to try a hundred mile week just for the Hell of it. Haven't done that since college. 110 was my all time max.
I doubled up on the amount of food I brought to work last night so didn't have to lug that. I did forget to bring an extra set of clothes so had to bring that but those fit in my GoLite running fanny pack. Next time I'll plan better so I carry less.
Had a pretty good head wind which made the hills at the end of the run hard. I think I managed around a 7:30 avg. Will have to wait till I download the file.
Now the interesting part of the test. Working all night & then running home. All the hills are in the 1st half going home so have that going for me.
My Damn head phones lost sound in one side again. I don't know why but that is how all my headphones die. This was a cheap pair & it showed since they barely lasted a month or so. I've had 4 or 5 pair die this way I'm the last couple of years.
