Friday-2.6 (Intervals)
Sunday-4.8
First, let me say how wonderful my new shoes are! I have never have had such supportive shoes (or at least can't remember the last time that I did). I am also so happy with my purchase of my tomtom watch. It makes running my intervals SO much easier. It vibrates when its time for me to run and rest. I don't even need to look at anything now.
This week reminded me what it was like to be a runner When I hit 4.8 miles, I was ready to keep going. I can't remember the last time that I had a runner's high. It was so wonderful.
I'm starting to experience some shin pains, and some knee pains. I hope it doesn't get too much worse. I'm wondering if I should invest in a knee brace. However, I'm not sure if I really need one. I never needed one when I ran in high school, but that last thing I want to do is hurt myself.
I'm debating going to a running clinic the 24th of next week in Pensacola. I really just wish that I didn't live so far away, because I would prefer not to spend over 12 hours away from home. I really believe that I could benefit from the information though...
Adrian and I signed up for a 5K in October. It's going to be the first 5K race that I've ever run before. I'm pretty pumped. Adrian said our goal should be 28 minutes. Right now, at a steady slow running pace I'm averaging 11 minute miles. So my goal is to keep working and get it to 10 before the race.
Another thing that I need to do is join a gym. I really want to join a place that does fitness classes as well. I especially want to be a part of a yoga class. I miss going, and I think that stretching would be really good for my body. It's just hard to find a gym that is in my area, or even in Pensacola that I'd be okay with joining, and won't charge me an arm and a leg.
Here's to another completed week!
