What a nice morning. Got up early and my son was going to run with me, but wasn't down here when I told him I needed to be out the door so...by myself (which isn't a bad thing right now). I ran my 3 mile Bluffdale loop and felt fantastic!!! I struggled a tiny bit on the last little bit of uphill but really concentrated on holding good form and not only did that help with how my legs felt but with dread of the hill as well. I was thinking I would add on a 1/4-1/2 mile per day but I think I am going to wait until next week. Really want to be smart about increase in mileage...especially since I am not training for anything, no need to get up in the high mileage range right now. Building a nice base that I am comfortable with, helps me lose weight, etc. sounds great right now. Maybe along the way I will get faster and want to run some sort of race. For now, I will be the tortoise:)
Did some legs and abs when I got home. |
