Total Distance

I ran 6.22 miles (10 K) in 52:43 seconds. It was surprising that I started out running 8 and 9 minute miles and finished off running sub-8 minute miles. I am planning on running more 10 Ks because I apparently can maintain a faster pace than I expected. Now, I will try to beat this record this evening and run another 10 k, a little faster than 52:43 seconds if possible. The weather was very humid, and it began raining heavily during my last mile. I am trying to run during the night because the humidity and the sun are unbearable during the day.
