May 22 Midnight Semi-Barefoot 7.5 K Run

I got out to run a slightly longer distance of 7.5 K on Sunday night
mainly because the moon was beautiful and there was no wind,
so it was perfect weather for a run,
but also because I didn't run both on the previous night and this morning,]
so I wanted to catch up on my new daily goal of 5 K per day.

I ran my favorite 2.5 K quarter pie-shape road three laps.

Today's result is as follows:
1st 2.5 K: 11:59
2nd 2.5 K: 11:40
3rd 2.5 K: 10:36
Total 7.5 K: 34:16 (equivalent to a 4:33/K pace)

If I can keep the pace above for another 2.5 K,
I can run 10 K in 45:38.
It's actually not a bad time for a 49-year-old average runner.
Today's time is enough to make me carry on with the training
I began after the painful defeat in Kasumigaura Marathon on April 17.
