Chris was kind enough to take me out on a morning run on Tuesday (see training log to the right). Yuck.
There are many things that I am proud of for 2008. For the first time I ran more than 3 miles, I can go more than 2 laps without stopping my swim (try 2 miles!), I did a number of formal and informal triathlons including my first USAT official Triathlon.
Yet what happened to my run? An 8:16 split over 5.4 miles?
Back in June I could run 6 miles with an average pace (non-race mode) of 7:37. Check it out here.
But an 8:16 just 6 months later?
In all fairness I have not exercised regulary in Nov/Dec. Furthermore I have been working a heck of a lot harder on my swim than on my run. But it does go to prove that no matter how much work you do over the course of a year, fitness wanes...quickly.
