Day #07 – Coaching at Maine Running Company
Today was day #07 of the challenge, so I needed to run 7 miles today.
I got in a bit over 2 miles at lunch time so I had 5 miles remaining when I got to Maine Running Company. I spent about 15 or 20 minutes putting sheet metal screws in people’s shoes. They weren’t really necessary tonight since it was quite warm, but everybody has been struggling with the ice for the past week or two on the roads and wanted to have some made up.
We ran over to PYA street for hill repeats, which is one of the few streets in the area around the store that stays relatively clear since it gets sun for most of the day. The hill itself is about 1/5 of a mile long, and it is a half mile loop around the block including the recovery.
I ran the hills with everybody (3 for most people, 5 total for a few that wanted a slightly longer workout) and then returned to the store having gone about 4.3 miles total. That’s when I recorded today’s update.
After almost everybody had left for the evening, I ran around the streets near the store for the last 2/3 of a mile that I needed in order to get to 7 total.
Here are today’s numbers:
Miles Projected: 7 Miles (28 Miles Total)
Miles Run: 2.04 Miles & 5.02 Miles for 7.06 Miles (34 Miles Total)
Duration: 30:05 and 46:20 for 1:16:25 (6:51:26 Total)
Net Weight Change: 0 Pounds (+2 Pounds Total)
