Easy run from home to Balboa Park. All miles at 8:00-9:00. Longest outside run since I sprained my ankle in April 2013. No ankle pain.

Threshold run on treadmill (dark so early).

Warmed up with 1 mile easy

Threshold miles - 3.1 miles at 7:24 pace

Easy miles/cooldown 2 miles

The 7:24 pace felt challengeing at the end, mostly in upper body. Lost some endurance up top too.

Easy miles along Embarcadero. 8:30 average pace. Goregous fall San Diego morning. Used Runkeeper on my iPhone 5S. The app tracks stride rate; I was right at 180 steps per minute.

Long run at about 9:00 pace. Checked out the Ocean Beach bike path. It was a beautiful morning again in San Diego. About 65 degrees and gloriously sunny.

Ankle felt sore during run, like it usually does when I run outside. But not a sharp pain, so I ran on. The treadmill used to fell like this (and doesn't anymore), so I think it is part of the recovery process.

I went out very, very fast. But then settled into a rhythm by about the half mile mark.By about end of the first mile, I had formed a nice little group with about a half a dozen other runners. I stayed in the back of the pack, using them to block the wind. The pack was going a little bit faster than I had planned, but I decided to stay with them. The group broke up in the last half mile of the race, and I decided to go with the faster runners and kick.

The course was a little bit short, so it was an average pace of 6:51.

I was very happy with an average pace that began with a ‘6.’ I was projecting a little bit slower pace, since it was colder than I’m used to, and I didn’t do a proper warm up. I also think I’m in a little better shape than I thought I was. What a nice surprise! The ankle held up very well. No pain during the race, or after.

My dad ran this race too. I did a little cool down run and found my dad on the course and helped him bring it home!
