Urban Runner

This is my blog. I live, work and run in the city of Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. I'm a regular 9 to 5er trying to find out what he can do with his running.

When I'm not running I've been known to enjoy the odd cup of coffee.

Notes:
- stitch from 7 k for the rest of the way in partially caused by eating to close to the start time.
- very humid
- never got into a good rhythm around the 4:00 min pace.
- My HR didn't feel high but the legs felt sluggish on the day. No get up and go so to speak.
- faster kms tended to be the ones with the slight rolling hills.
- the pace felt like I could go on for quite a while just not faster on the day asuming the stitch would go away eventually.
- seamed to fall back into my half marathon pace which is becoming more comfortable for me.
