| Chalked-in start line for our 3-mile time trial |
Spring may not arrive until tomorrow, but our 10-week training plan for the Bolder Boulder kicked off today with a 3-mile time trial. The neighborhood next to mine has proven to be a perfect area for measured speed work and I've got courses measured out for a plethora of interval distance combinations - including today's 3-mile loop.
My expectations for today's time trial were not lofty. After a winter filled with 12-minute-per-mile slogs, I very much hoped I could somehow manage pull out a 3-mile run at something quicker than 11 minute pace. Imagine my surprise when each of my miles were in the 9's with the total for the 3 miles coming in at 28:12, which even included a lap (the 2nd mile) with Taz when Kendall and Taz surprised us on the course.
'Tis definitely time to step up the training!
