I was sure I was going to have a rough time of it yesterday when I went out for my run. On the contrary, I had a super awesome hour! And while I'm still not quite up to speed I did go over 4 miles in that hour. My average pace was just over an 11 minute mile. When I race the best I've done is around 10 1/2 minute miles. This spring/summer I would really like to get it down to 10 minute miles. But for training and every day purposes, I am quite happy with 11 minute miles. Of course, as I said, that was just the average because I did walk a couple of times. Today I'm going to try to run the entire hour with no walk breaks. It is misty outside and I always run better in the rain for some reason. Unless it's pouring. I won't be able to run tomorrow due to meetings and such, but I should be able to do it again on Thursday.
And I was on a roll yesterday. I got home and sat down to finish up the body of the Cloisonne Jacket. I did that AND cast on for the sleeves. Unfortunately I didn't read the directions all the way through and ended up having to re-cast on one sleeve. So they are cast on and ready to go. Tonight I'll get at least a portion of the lace done. I've decided to do them flat. Hope I don't regret it.
Adele has a new album out and on the radio this morning they played the Cure song that she covers, 'Lovesong'. It's beautiful. I haven't purchased an album on iTunes for a long while but I think I'll buy this one.
