Couch-to-5K: Week 8, Day 2

by Bryan on in 🍎 Health and Fitness
Couch-to-5K Running

So Week 8, Day 2 of the Couch-to-5K Running Plan is in the books. I just finished it up about 20 minutes ago. Since Sunday's poor outdoor run, I've decided to run as much of the remaining days outside. Today was no exception. I will say that today's run felt much better than Sunday's run, and I think the times support that. Here are my splits:

  • Mile 1: 11:46
  • Mile 2: 21:28
  • Mile 3: 32:20
  • 5K: 33:36

Additional details:

  • Distance Covered: 3.05 miles
  • Duration: 33:00
  • Avg. Speed: 5.55
  • Avg. Pace: 10:49

Notes:

  • Split times include initial 5 minute walk, which covered approximately .33 mile.
  • Ran Heritage 5K Alternate 2
  • Ran with new Thorlos socks--they felt really good.
  • Stiff wind out of the south...was tough during exposed east/west parts of course and when heading into it, of course.
  • This run felt a lot better than Sunday's run
