Finally a true recovery type run. Took it really easy for all six miles today. No speeding up in the middle or the end, no faster miles, just plain, ordinary, easy aerobic running. I have a little discomfort in the left lower back area and a slight twinge in the left knee but I think those are probably the result of the previous couple of days of breaking my normal routine and running a little faster. Hopefully those areas won't develop into bigger problems. Softball is starting up again for the girls. Ahhh the endless nights and Saturdays at the fields watching games and practices...... Must mean that warmer weather is getting really close. Temp was 51 today with little wind and I ran in shorts....again.
Time: 51:57 8:39/mile
I actually did my push ups test today and I will start week 1 on Monday. I am embarrassed to say how many (how few) I did. I knew it would be bad because I have no upper body strength at all but, oh well, that's why I'm doing this right? So my max was a meager 10 push-ups, no laughing..... |
