Week #2 - Day 2

I ventured outdoors today since it looks like it will be the last day below 80 degrees for the near future, as summer is now upon us. I headed north on the towpath trail. I surprised myself by clocking in at 8:30 on my first mile. But I slowed and did the 2nd one in about 9:00. Can't remember my split on mile 3, but I think it was the worst of the bunch. I completed the 4 miles in 35:29. Almost a full 4 minutes off my time from last week on the 4 miler, and my first time averaging a sub-9 minute mile. So I'm very happy with that. I really wasn't expecting to see such immediate improvements. It's very encouraging.
