Week off

A week off. Gained 5 Thanksgiving pounds.
6 mile run on Monday. Watch did not work, but I was happy with the "feel".
I bought a small electronic metronome and have used it on the last 3 runs, I really like it. I am working hard on my running form which includes a high cadence. I was surprised that my “new” natural cadence was 91 to 92 steps per minute. Plenty fast. That is good news. Now I need to keep working on a good base and next year maybe on some speed which would means a little longer stride with the same 92 steps. The metronome keeps me on pace and focussed and helps especially when running up hill and when I start to tire.
