Easy 7.3 mile bendaryl run

Allergies are killing me these last couple weeks and today was bad. So I had to take some benadryl before the run. Very spacey during the run but was able to get the mileage in. Picked it up for the last 1/10th of a mile but nothing too crazy.

Total Mileage: 7.3
Total Time: 1:06:23
Average Pace: 9:05
Average Speed: 6.6 mph
Max Speed: 8.3 mph

Splits

Also, one more change on the race schedule. Due to some family obligations and such - I wont be doing the 5k this coming weekend and the marathon has moved yet again to the Cape Cod marathon on October 25th.
