3.84 miles

Today was Sunday and instead of a long run, I took a slow shorter run.  Really slow.  I ran almost 4 miles and it took 49 minutes.  I just couldn't seem to go any faster, I just was slow and plugged along.  Sometimes that is better than nothing at all.  I haven't figured out how to push myself harder and speed myself up on some of my runs.  My practices and workouts here at home don't seem to give me inspiration to go fast.  But when I get in a race, I can be much speedier.  I think it is the whole air of excitement and spirit of competition that helps me to sped up.  One of my goals is to try to work on some speed practice runs.
