Running 35:57 [3] 4.0 mi (8:59 / mi)
rhr:60 slept:6.5 weight:160lbs shoes: Wave Nirvana 3
Hot sunny 86° day like the other days this week.
I wasn't sure that I should tempt fate and continue setting season records. I wasn't even sure I should continue what seems to be an obviously aggressive schedule considering my background and history. I tried a different NSAID today. Instead of taking two Aleve I tried one Celebrex.
Mike Minium met the team and I for our daily run. He and I went out at a comfortable pace with the same four miles in mind. The conversation makes the miles and time pass easier. We started out at about the same pace I have been doing these past few days, but this was likely faster than I would have attempted alone. My gut has been suggesting that I should back off a bit and build in some rest even a small bit.
I was pleasantly surprised that we maintained a steady fair pace through the first two miles. I made a decision to back it off just a bit over the last two miles unless pleasant feelings just carried me away. The Celebrex seemed to being working but considering the lesser intensity I don't believe that it was a fair comparison.
At the three mile turn around I tried to slow a bit again. Running with Mike just naturally makes things go faster. With one quarter mile to go Mike apologized and excused himself to book it in while I coasted the remaining 400M.
