Schwitzen

Today was day 4 of training for me since K and I decided to try and run more. It was a slow pace day; so my goals were to try and have a 9 min/mile pace and do either 4 miles or 40 minutes (of course whether I would do the distance or the time is also a function of whether I managed to achieve my first goal).

In the end I did 4 miles in 35:36 for an average pace of 8:54 min/mile.

A few observations:
 - My impressions are completely misleading. I think I am going at a constant pace but I am slowing down constantly, so the watch helps a lot.
- The last mile was pure hell; which shows I am far from being capable of running 12 miles at a good pace.
-  I am improving already, so there is some hope.
