Training Oct 5 - Mesocycle 1, Week 1, Day 1

4 Week Mesocycle - Base Building 1

Goal: Lower Weight, establish weakly goals of 30-40 miles running, 75-100 miles cycling, 5000-7500 meters swimming

Week 1 Day 1 - 5 mile easy run at 44:55 (almost 9 min/mile). Temperature 59F. Course: South Avenue Route.

This run is the first of the 2010 training season. 9 minutes per mile is a little bit faster than comfortable, so I know I have some work to do. Still, it's a start and did well with it.
