Woo Hoo! For the first time I think I might actually be able to run 30 minutes straight. I almost did it. I got sidelined at minute 20 by stupid cramps and had to walk for a couple minutes. But, I think I pretty much ran for 27 of the 30 minutes of today's run :) Mapping it, I notice that I only went 2.54 miles, so about the same distance as every other time. Pacing myself. And I got stuck at a light for about 30 seconds - the one at Sycamore and Medford, so I guess I thought I was more done than I was.
Stats: First 1.78 miles in 20 minutes - pace = 11:14 mile.
The secret was I went the other direction, a gentle uphill to start instead of downhill and then a big uphill. Oh, and I pooped right before I left, thought it would help with cramps.
Next time I'll try 7 min/1 min maybe to keep from cramping.
