First 10k Run

My pace as really been improving lately in the 5k. Yesterday I had my best pace yet of 5:14 min/km.

I’ve been thinking for a while that I would like to work out to 10k. This morning my son had me awake earlier than normal so I had some extra time. I decided to take advantage and to see how far I could go if I slowed my pace down a bit.

I figured I might make it to 7k which I would have been happy with. But I made it to 7k and still felt really good so I kept going. When I came around to 10k I was ecstatic. I couldn’t stop smiling even though I was pretty worn out.

A little more than 5k is the longest I had gone before but I was able to go up to 10 just by slowing down a bit. Very excited.

Pebble Smart Watch

After wanting one for quite some time I finally broke down and bought a Pebble Smart Watch and it arrived today.

It’s great for lots of things but my main reason for getting it is for running. It allows me to see my time, pace, and distance all without having to pull my huge phone out of my pocket. I can even stop the workout when I am done.

Another great bonus is I can control my music from it. So as I’m going along I switch songs again keeping my phone in my pocket.
