Another milestone

Just back from the Sunday run. For today I had a milestone in mind, which was to run with the longest running group. My schedule today was for 10 miles and the longest group was doing a 12 miler, so I decided to do a 12 miler. I ended doing the 12 miles fastest in the group (of course there was no race, they were all running at an easy pace, but nonetheless :D). I did 12 miles in 1 hr 55 mins (approximately).
At the end I was dead tired, first time till now that I have gotten this tired after a run. Guess (or rather hope) I'll get better over time.

Update for the rest of the week:

Tuesday 26 July - 5 laps (fast) - Univ Park
Friday 29 July - 5 laps - Univ Park
Saturday - track workout at Pleasant Point.
The track workout was great fun, my coach's coach was present, and he did some track drills with us, which were fun. Stuff like skip running, backward running, sideward running, etc. It was followed by 4 easy laps (warmup) with strides. Then I did 4 timed laps with a minute break between each lap. My timing was:
Pravin 4X400- 1:31, 1:35, 1:43, 1:30
So in terms of pacing it was good.

Alright then, until next week, adios....
