a good albeit sickly kind of run + a prediction
I just came back from a run that was designed to shake this head cold loose. While I’m not certain it worked, it didn’t seem to have done any harm. Besides that, you can never go wrong with some endorphins floating around in your blood. Right?
Especially with being sick, I was impressed with the pace for this easy run - 7:50 min/mile for 60 minutes. Over the past ten or so months, my paces have steadily dropped. I still remember when “easy” was nine or more minutes per mile.
I’m going to go out on a limb and predict something. Within the next year, I am guessing that:
1. My easy training pace will become 7:30ish minutes per mile, and
2. My hard training pace will become 7:00 minutes per mile.
You heard it here first!

Mark, I can remember when your “easy” training pace was 9 minutes/mile. Sorry to hear you’re under the weather.
BTW - why no PR Red Deer marathon T-Shirt for the author pic?
