yay cross-country jogging.

May 22, 2007 23:37

I ran 7.8 kilometers today, with a twenty minute 'break' in between. 3.5 km, then the 20 minute break was getting a glass of water, cooling down a little, planning my 4.3 km jog, and trying to get my younger brother and/or father to join me. (Both declined.)
Pictures will be in this schoolfriends-only post tomorrow.

For now:

4:08-4:33 pm (25 min)
3487.52 meters = 2.16704446 mi
2.16704446 / (25 / 60) = 5.20 mi/hr average speed
25 / 2.16704446 = 11.5 minute mile
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
4:51-5:24 pm (33 min)
4283.27 meters = 2.66150059 mi
2.66150059 / (33 / 60) = 4.84 mi/hr average speed
33 / 2.66150059 = 12.4 minute mile
(I blame the fatigue of the previous jog, and the sun.)

These times include the cool-off period of me walking back to the house. Keep in mind this is almost strictly up and down big, steep hills.

A truck drove by with such horrible exhaust that it almost gave me a headache (me jogging in my neighborhood). He was hauling a tractor, and ONCE AGAIN, was a white male with reddish skin wearing a baseball cap. I think I'm going to try to marry a southern girl and move up North. (I have yet to see a truck driven by someone that either fit that description or seemed married to him.)

exercise, running, summer
