Street Run (To the beach) 42:25 [2] 4.5 mi (9:26 / mi) +168m 8:27 / mi
slept:7.0
Cautious street run down to the beach, with ice on the sidewalk in parts and few lights to guide me in the darkness. First time I've used my Garmin for this run, which I've been running for years. Now I know how far it is from my house.
First time since I strained my back that I felt my body slip into that old and comfortable running form. Of course that feeling came after the halfway point, where my pace dropped from 9:45/mile to 9:05/mile. I didn't feel the speed, just the ease while running.
Starting to understand how to dress for cold. Wore a light windbreaker with two shirts on underneath. Could have worn just the shirts and running tights. But the shirts were nice, since the breeze was inland. Totally nice at the beach: calm and almost warm.
