Yesterday I was supposed to do a mile warm up, then 20 minutes at half marathon goal pace + 10-15 seconds, 4 strides then a mile cool down. I still felt pretty sick so I put it off to today.
Today I had this URGE to run even though my cold was still lingering. I put the baby in the jogging stroller and off we went. Did a little over a mile warm up and then ran a little over 3-1/2 miles in 25:23. The average pace per mile during that segment was between 7:12 and 7:15. I then cooled down with a mile jog.
The baby fell asleep (and as a result, refuses to nap right now) and I feel great. My head feels better and so does my nose, but my throat is still scratchy and my chest is still a little congested.
Tomorrow just an easy 30 minute run, Saturday is a rest day and then BAM... 13.1.
