A little over a month ago, I blogged about my current running regimen. At that time, I said that one of my reasons for going with the Nike+ iPod kit was to try and start running longer distances. Well, I'm proud to say that I have finally started making my "normal" route a ~3.5 mile run, instead of ~2.5 miles.
I'd show you an updated graph from the Nike+ site, but it's currently down (and I'm too embarrassed to say who it is hosted by). So, I grabbed this screen shot out of my iTunes instead:
My last workout (3.49 miles) and workout history (over 165 miles).
As you can see, I had a pretty decent run today - covering ~3.5 miles in 30 minutes is a pretty good pace for me. When I first started this new route, it was taking me around 34 minutes to cover the same distance.
One thing that I've noticed about running 3.5 miles is that as of right now, I can't do this route 6 times a week -- my legs get too tired by about the 4th time in a row, and I need to take a day off. I'm hoping that if I keep at this, however, that I'll be able to increase my stamina.
