Boston -88 -- Thu. Jan. 21

Classes to do, but first the morning run: out by 8:45 on a pretty chill but sunny morn, and figured I'd stay on roads to keep things straightforward. Bagg Hill run: started on GeoHannum, decided to stick with it all the way to Stebbins/School and left along to 202, crossing over and straight along, then double back on Chicopee. Back at 202, go right up to Eskett and then to Boardman and head home from there. To add a bit of distance at the end (wanting to reach 11) run up to DPW and then back homewards again. Stop clock at 11, then jog home to cool off.

Time: 1:21:49
Distance: 11.03 miles
Pace: 7:25s

Comment: Took this mainly quite easy, but running in shorts felt good (chilly! but good) and pace was steady. This felt promising for the marathon pace, though I've really got to try it over 18-21 miles to really see. In a few weeks. . .
