my training, thoughts and running goals

08/25/2007 - Bike & Run

Well, Thursday was a planned day off and I had intended to run Friday afternoon, except the thunder and lightning came. So I took that as a day off, no sense getting hit by lightning. :)

Today, Saturday was a Bike/Run day. My run was just a short, slow run. I went without my Nike+ today.

    Bike

Time: 1.06.47
Distance: 21.40
Average Speed: 19.2 MPH
Max Speed: 29.2 MPH

    Run

My run today (without Nike+)
2 Miles at about 18 minutes. Slow and steady.

I find that my overall run is much nicer when biking first. My pacing is much better. I do have some stiffness in the early first 1/2 mile or so, but once that has passed its very refreshing. Now if could just take that “feel” and learn to run better without biking first. I always tend to go out to fast.
