7.3km 34 min
The run was pretty hard, it was hot and somewhat humid, I am surprised that my time isn't slower as the heat was really making me hurt.
I am going to be taking the hard route towards reaching my 800 goal. The easier route is to immediately begin running intervals, the downside to that is that I won't be aerobically as well developed. The first 90 seconds of a run are anaerobic, it is during those last thirty seconds that aerobic conditioning really kicks in.
Some background on my running history: I ran cross country and track in high school grades for the last three years. My best times were 4:58 for 1500, 10:47 for 3000, 2:31 for the only 800 I ran, and 17:43 for a road 5K although my 17:56 for an XC 5K might be the stronger performance due to the less favorable surface. All of these records are over half a decade old. I should sign up for a 5k happening a few weeks from now to assess my running fitness.
