Group run with MRR - 10 miler

With the today's morning temperatures starting at 8 degrees with a feels like -4 (that's right - MINUS four) - I figure what a great day for a long run.

I met up with the Milford Road Runner gang at the library as usual - and we didn't stand around and chat much due to the cold. Had three layers on so I wasn't miserable and once we got going I started to warm up pretty good. By mile 3 I had taken my clava off and just went with the hat on top. By mile 5 had unzipped the top layer, and by mile 8 I had taken the hat off - my beard was pretty icy by the end. Pace was great considering it was 10 miles and I haven't run that long since October. Dan is great to run with as he can push the pace without absolutely killing me.

Total Mileage: 10.32 miles
Total Time: 1:25:25
Average Pace: 8:16

And week 3 of the hundred push-ups program and week 4 of the two hundred sit-ups program is in the books. The sit-ups have helped alot in my core strength and in my runs. I feel more stable and strong in the "abular" area when running.
