Season 1, Mission 10: Tess

Tracked down a traitor fleeing Abel Township with stolen military intel
 
1.65 miles - 28:23 minutes - 17:14 min/mile

Ran Wednesday instead of Tuesday, because I had a long drive planned yesterday and didn't get much sleep, and didn't want to be too tired on the way home. I've been thinking anyway that I should change my running schedule—if I do the 4-hour round trip drive every Tuesday, I would rather not be getting up early to run on that day. So I will try Monday and Wednesday instead of Tuesday and Thursday. Except this week, I already didn't run Monday so I will have to run Wednesday and Thursday. I don't generally like running two days in a row, but every once in a while it's okay. And I've got a short one this weekend.

Today's run went pretty well. Weather was chilly when I got up, so I wore long leggings and a long-sleeved shirt. Didn't really need them once I got going, but it was nice for the first few laps. There's still a lot of smoke in the air from all the fires in California, but it seemed fairly clear this morning. I do wonder if maybe I should be taking it easy while the air's so smokey, but it hasn't seemed to bother me.

Speed was a bit better today. I tried to remember to keep my stride short and quick. No zombie chases again. Splits were 16:56 and 17:02. (Still don't get how my average pace can be slower than either of my mile splits.)
