Miller Series 10-miler: Pace Prep

Sadly, it did not feel like the first weekend of April with a 19 degrees windchill, but being Indiana you should expect nothing less. Not much of a choice but to literally put on your big girl PANTS and get over it. And most importantly, have fun with it. 

I hadn't raced "alone" since Monumental, so I had nothing but 10 miles and my thoughts to work on my pace. It was also great to snap a picture with fellow ambassadors and do a race with my SIL Sarah!

Conditions were less than optimal, but doable. Made the executive decision my legs would be covered but ditched the gloves was a great plan. Regardless, partially rested, my goal was to hold 7:45. However, I got a little excited and went out to fast, (I know, huge shocker to all who know me : ) and the wind wasn't the most helpful. But when I saw my splits, all I could do was laugh. 

Regardless, nice little training run, because that's what it was. After a mile cool down I topped off a 30-mile week.  With the mini closing in, feeling like I'm in a pretty good place ☺️
