Based on how my gentler runs are getting at the same time gentler and gentler and more and more difficult, I would conclude that the idea of the gentler run is a good one. I've decided that once we're free of this blasted heat wave, I'm going to figure out how to delete my data from the app and just start over from scratch and build from there. Then we'll see how long I'll make it before winter. (I could do so without deleting, but it'd be harder to keep track of) Today I was seriously struggling with three minutes running. I have always been the sort of person who suffers rather in heat, and I think this fact is being illustrated quite nicely here.

On the upside, today I got sort of fist-pumped by a passing mamil, so that was encouraging. Or, in hindsight, his gesture could have been interpreted somewhat differently in which case I got slightly threatened by a passing mamil, but I don't think that's very likely.

Yes, to quote one of our favourite yoga videos "even if you only did a little bit, at least you did some." :)

I'm not too bothered about the stats in that app, though. It doesn't collect very much of that and I don't usually look at them. It doesn't seem made for easy comparison and I've got Garmin Connect for that. I only really use the Start Running app to tell me what to do and when to do it, so I'm not really losing much. :)
