Day Nine: Practice 5K

You may have noticed that I did not run on Wednesday. I ended up getting a minor surgery on Wednesday so I took the day off so I could recover and run today and Sunday. Instead of doing a run for the app I decided to do a practice 5K run so I could gage how I will do for the Iron Girl race. I am very happy with how today went. I was able to run 2 miles straight without any walking breaks! I am extremely excited/happy with that. I am looking forward to Sunday and I plan resting up tomorrow.

Day Eight: Pre-Run and Post Run

So as you may have noticed I did not run much the past two weeks. I have been battling injury and sickness. I decided today that I was tired of not running and that even though I am sick, I am going to go and run. While I was running today, I remember when I thought running 3 minutes was a pain; I can now run 5 minutes straight without a problem. I can go past that, but since I am doing training, I walk when the program says to. I In order to make my workouts more vigorous, I sprint the last minute. It wasn’t so bad tonight, but I may be in for a rough tomorrow.
