How a 250+ Pound Couch Potato Got Healthy

Wednesday, October 22, 2008

Today I ran 5.35 miles again. My usual route, although I was a bit faster overall. I think though that I need to slow down in the earlier miles so I can be a bit faster in the later ones. Here's the splits:

Mile 1: 9:13
Mile 2: 9:18
Mile 3: 9:39
Mile 4: 10:07
Mile 5: 10:19
Average: 9:43/mi
Total Time: 52:03
Calories Burned: 675

And that's another thing. The Garmin's HRM isn't varying much run to run, so I'm starting to think it's still only going by time & distance. What I should do is wear it and drive 5 miles at 5mph and see what it reads then. Heh.
