Hamstring Treatment - Week 16 - 8 Mile Pace Run...

For the second Friday in a row, I tried to get in a "pace" run. And for the second Friday in a row, the winds were howling. Today, they were from the southeast -- 30 km/h gusting to 41 km/h. So my last couple of miles into the wind were very tough (and very slow). Here are my splits:

8:38
7:56
7:34
7:50
7:58
8:53
9:30
8:51

You can tell how tough the wind was by the fact that my last "pace" mile into the wind was 9:30, but when I turned the corner and headed north with the wind (somewhat) at my back, my pace improved to 8:51 -- and that was my "cool-down" pace!

Total miles for this week: 48.5.
