Week M day 1

[liv]

Day 1 run is 30 minutes. I ran in the park in very pleasant weather, and I was paying attention to how my body felt. I didn't quite manage an absolutely steady pace, I started off a bit too fast and there were some stretches where I slowed down, but kept going. I managed 4.1 km including the warmup, which is as far as I've ever managed and better than my previous record for real life running. 8' 20'' /km. It felt like hard work, and I had to consciously push myself to keep going, but never actively uncomfortable.

Week 3, day *wheeze*

[healingmirth]

I usually extend my runs a bit - I've got a destination I like to run to, so I usually stick to the same route and tack some extra 90-second intervals on to the end as needed, to stay warm and get back to my door a little faster.

For a bunch of reasons (hockey to watch, ( new shoes )

, replacement earbuds Do Not Fit my ears and kept falling out) I cut my route short and therefore ended up running my last interval up the steepest sustained incline on the route.

So, that was dumb, but probably good for me. Onward!
