Seven Miles this Evening

   Rocky and I weren't able to get our run in this morning, so we waited it out until this afternoon/evening. I picked a route that I thought would be 6 miles, but ended up being 7 miles.
   Temperature was 54 degrees with 15 mph WNW winds, and cloudy. This was supposed to be an easy slow run, but it wasn't :( and I was trying out my new pair of shoes, the Asics GT-2000 2 Lite-Show and I am not sure if my feet and legs were just sore from yesterday's 9 miler or if they don't like the shoes. Hopefully a few more runs in them will tell me, I also bought the bright yellow pair of GT-2000 2's.
  Anyways, my feet were sore and we started out too fast but I managed to slow Rocky down a little. We ran 7 miles in 1:10:27 with an average pace of 10:03 min/mile, elevation gain of 189 feet and a loss of 191 feet.
Laps/splits were:
Mile 1 - 10:02
Mile 2 - 10:22
Mile 3 - 10:06
Mile 4 - 10:06
Mile 5 - 9:59
Mile 6 - 10:06
Mile 7 - 9:44
   
     I am honestly glad tomorrow is a rest day, though if the weather is nice we might go for a walk. Friday's 4 or 5 miler might be on the trails though, we'll have to see.
