Dogfish Dash
Hey everyone! This is a guest post by my friend, Paul Cox (from Wayward Winos)
This Sunday I ran the first of two 10k races of the fall season in Milton, Delaware— the Dogfish Dash.
As for my performance, I must say that I am quite pleased. Here’s the breakdown leading up to race day.
Though I haven’t been too pleased with AT&T, the iPhone has more than made my life better and it in the running arena, this is especially useful. With application combo of Runkeeper and Pandora, I’ve been able to make my distance training a bit more bearable and tremendously more efficient with the ability to time and track all my sessions.
The longest training run prior to this race was approximately 3.37 miles, with a pace of 9:05 minutes per mile. This for me was a barely tolerable pace, but nearly repeatable in other training sessions. Another event had me at 3.29 miles with a 9:09 minutes per mile, again on the cusp of my limit.
