I’m not in Oklahoma. I’m in Nebraska. But we have some pretty amazing winds here too, so I felt like quoting the song!
Today’s weather would have been perfect for running, minus the crazy winds that were blowing outside. But I had a 10k on the schedule, and I was not about to run it on a treadmill when it was so nice outside!
Today’s long run, by the numbers:
6.2-Miles ran
59-Degrees outside
40-Mile per hour wind gusts.
8:00-My best pace, according to my Garmin. When I had the wind at my back, I was booking it. I averaged a 9:40 pace then!
11:17-my average pace for the run. I had to walk some when I felt like the wind was going to blow me over. So I consider this pace a victory!
Well, I’m off to relax to and catch up with my DVR. I have to say the amazingness that I have seen across my dashboard was an inspiration to me today! You all rock!
Have a good Sunday friends! 🙂
