Queenstown run

Ran through Queenstown, New Zealand, with my Sweetie! We took the bus down the big hill from the hotel and then ran through town along the lakefront, through the public gardens, and along the Frankton trail. When we hit 35 minutes we turned and headed back.

The run was supposed to be an hour at a slow-ish pace. That's what we did. A lot of the run was on trails and not pavement, so that made for a nice change. At the end I wanted to sprint the last few hundred feet. We hit speeds of 6:24! Woo hoo!!

Here's the breakdown:
Lap    pace
1       10:25
2       11:10
3       10:57
5       10:55
6       10:07  (0.72mi for 7:14)

Totals were 5.72 miles in 1:01:47 at an average 10:49 pace. Nice! I like the negative splits!
