Must write down before I forget...

Today's scheduled run was 22 minutes. I chose to split it up a bit because:

1. I wanted to be able to keep up with my 5mph pace from Tuesday;
2. Because of the outside temperature being so mild and humid the gym was particularly hot today, and;
3. I have bootcamp tonight and I really, really wanted to be able to go without being completely bagged.

Instead of the balls to the walls run I did on day 3 of week 5, I went a bit more conservative today... but MAN WAS IT A TOUGH RUN. Reminiscent of runs during the super humid weather last summer... but on a treadmill instead of outdoors.

I had to go to the running room to get some new ear phones before heading to the gym so decided the 3 blocks to and from the store would be sufficient as my warm up so once I hopped onto the treadmill, I immediately dialled it up to 5mph and ran for 10 minutes, walked at 3.5 mph for a minute (if I am truly honest, it was a minute and a half), then ran the last 10 and a half minutes back at 5mph. This brought me to 1.82 miles. That's 2.92 km people! My cool down and estimated warm up brought that total up to 2.62 miles, or 4.21 km in 32 minutes. YIPPEE! That tells me that if I could RUN those extra 10 minutes, I JUST MIGHT DO THIS... AND with a significantly improved 5 k time.!!!
