I should have charged more for the cake! I think I got the servings right, so my price was probably fair as far as that was concerned, but due to the difficulty, I should have charged more. Oh well. Normally, Honey likes to add cost here and there for her hard work, but she was not around when I had to give a quote, so we lost out. I also forgot to charge for delivery! Ugh.We worked on the cake from 1pm to 11pm, and we have a little more to finish in the morning. I didn't run until 9 or 10pm! It was the best part of the day. I finally got to stretch out my legs and get out of the house. As much as I do love making a cake, hour after hour gets old eventually.
It was nice and cool compared to earlier, yet still warm enough for a pleasant night time run. I listened to so new music from 30 Seconds to Mars. I like the new album. It is a little more electronic sounding than I usually listen too, but it also rocks pretty hard so I can make an exception. Overall, I like it and it is good running music.
It was fairly dark in some places during my run and I got paranoid something was going to jump out of the bushes and eat me like, uh, an alligator or a Florida Panther or a squirrel! Nothing got me though. I was safe and I ran in the middle of the road so they had longer to run for their meal...especially those rabid squirrels!!
Here are my numbers:
Time: 20:00
Distance: 2.33 miles
Pace: 8:36/m
Max Pace: 7:27/m
Calories: 300
Avg HR: 137
Avg HR: 137
Max HR: 148
My new shoes are breaking in. As you can tell, I ran without Honey. She was busy working on the details of the cake. It is coming out really great...just you wait and see. I'll post the pictures tomorrow. Tomorrow, for my run, I am going to cut back on my running time. I have a race next weekend and I think it is a good idea to taper my distance. I am going to increase my intensity and reduce my volume. This is a good way to stay strong, improve my speed, and not tired my body out for next weekend.
Run for Life!
