One Whole Week!!

Yep I have been running for a week with no problems!!!

That should not sound impressive to you. No it should sound very unimpressive but lately it is a big accomplishment form me.

I took Monday off after the hard weekend and then Tuesday went and ran my course at the Greenway that gives me a good feel for where my fitness is.

56 minutes is what I run when I am just starting to run after long periods of nothing.  53 minutes is a good time and very typical.  48 is what I do when I am real fit and do a tempo run.

 

Yesterday I ran 52:30 and had to stop once for about 30 seconds to mess with my shoe.  I was a bit surprised because normally I need a drink of water at the halfway point and a short moment to regroup. Yesterday however I just kept right on going the whole way.  I felt really sluggish at the beginning which was not surprising after how fried I was after Sunday’s effort.  By the end though I was flowing pretty good and thinking about how I need some new music on my mp3 player not about running. 

I really am feeling good about things right now and sure hope they continue to improve.  

 

Normally tonight would be a bike night but it is forecast to storm pretty good so it may be a good night for just working on my Canoe.  I hope to ride though.
