5.5 Mile Run

Ran 5.5 miles in 59:25. After programming my watch at a two mile measured distance on the resovouir course, I found it was much more accurate for use. Nice night to run, my heart rate was anywhere from 134-144 on the flat parts to 155 on the hills. I did slow down the longer the miles went on. I think these longer run are going to be helpful to my 5K runs.

I have decided not to enter the Half Marathon. I am not trained and don't want to cause any nagging injuries to develop. I will likely work on doing a fast 5K as my next race. Uncertain if I will do a last October triathlon.

My new running shoes arrived as I have passed 100 miles on the current ones.
