My last two runs have both been four mile runs. I ran four and a quarter miles in 44 minutes on three days rest and then four miles in forty minutes, again on 3 days rest. My four mile runs have been at a slower pace since the runs are a little longer than what I have been running. Eventually, I hope to be running four miles at the same pace as my two and three mile runs.
My first 5k race is coming up next Saturday. I'm really excited. I'm hoping to finish somewhere around 27:30. I've only got three runs left before the 5k. I'm going to do some speed work tonight. I'm running a 5k at race pace on Sunday and then a four mile cruise on Wednesday. I've done my best running on two days rest so my plan is to rest on Thursday and Friday before the big race on Saturday.
Oh, I failed to mention that I got a pair of running shoes. Asics Kayano 12s. I love them! I ran four miles yesterday and my shins felt great right after the run. I did get a little blister but I think that's only my foot not used to the new shoe. I'm looking forward to putting a lot of miles on these shoes. Four miles and counting...
