Race Coming Up!
Just realized I have a 10k race coming up on Thursday. The Saunders 10k in Rye, NH. I really enjoyed this race last year. It was warm, but not too hot. It starts at 6PM and part of it runs near Rye Beach. It is a little hilly, but not too bad.
Some interesting (to me, anyway) stats. My time on this race last year, 57:48. My PR at this distance (from June of this year) 57:15. Now that means running 9:15-ish minute miles. When I ran those races, my training runs were around the 10, 10:30, even some 11-minute mile runs. Lately, thanks in large part to running every day, I have been running 9:30 or 10 minute miles during training runs. Hmm, some potential there for a PR. Of course, I also seem to do my best at races when I have no expectations, so maybe I just shouldn’t worry about it!
Anyway, wish me luck. Thursday will be a fun 10k, the weather looks good and it will be my 81st consecutive day of running!
