Vlog #12: CIM Training Week 3

CIM Training Week 3, Day 7: 6 miles

Today a 6 mile long run, which doesn't seem long at all to me. It's considered long, however, because it's in the "long run" spot in training, and gives a bit of a break before extending mileage next week.

I ran my normal 5 mile route, but extended it by taking a quick side trip for a half-mile out. Round trip, that added a mile onto the route.





I took it pretty easy and felt great the entire time.

Splits
Mile 1: 10:08
Mile 2: 9:56
Mile 3: 10:18
Mile 4: 10:03
Mile 5: 10:14
Mile 6: 10:23

6 miles, 1:01.05, 10:12/mi, 656 calories burned

Thus ends Week 3 of CIM training. 22 miles this week, next week I'll be up to 29.
