Well I went for my run and there is a snow storm out. I was going to run inside anyhow seeing as it’s my lunch hour and I need a shower after. So I headed to the gym and the traffic is insane because of the snow. I have a 5 mile run to do today and I wanted to see where the legs are at as far as recovery goes. I decided to pick the pace up a bit after the first mile so I ran the next 2 miles at a 7:45 min mile pace. Legs weren’t to bad but scaled it back for the last two miles and didn’t feel to bad. Bit of shin discomfort but nothing that won’t go away with some good stretching and a protein shake tonight. So the statistics are 5 miles in 40 minutes for an average pace of 8 minute miles.
Following that I forgot to bring lunch so I decided on the usual Tim Hortons Chili. Wow when I went to get a picture of it for this blog I saw a comparison of it and Wendy’s chili. Ok, I think I need to switch as there is quite a different in Fat between the two (more beans vs. more ground beef in Tim Hortons).
