The Road to Reykjavík: Run #91 6.09 miles, 40:16 Average pace - 6:37/mile After a horrendous red-eye flight home from California last night and a pretty full schedule today and tomorrow consisting of moving festivities (oh goody), I had to get a good power nap in during the day today and run this evening right after I taught my high-intensity Tabata class. This evenings run felt... Amazing. As usual I started off a bit slow to ease into the run and seriously thought that I would stay at that pace for the entire run tonight. Guess I was wrong. Around every corner of this run, and since I knew where I was and what the terrain consisted of, I picked up the pace just a little bit more. At a certain point around mile 4.5 I told myself that this [pace] was what I was going to be cruising at when I started my final 12K of the marathon. A note of truth: the original pace of 6:52 throughout the entire marathon didnt intimidate me. The pace with a 30-second walk every 5K at the water station, however, does. 6:25 per mile seems a whole lot faster than 6:52 for some reason. Regardless of the pace, I am first and foremost going to enjoy the marathon and have fun! Whatever my final time is, itll most definitely be my best efforts showing true! connect.garmin/activity/552686781
