I'm a genius I tell you! I should put this on Pinterest or something! Saves me from wanting to rip them in half and buy a new pair. AND it was a beautiful sunny morning. Dare I say it was actually an ENJOYABLE run? And I had my fastest mile since I started my half marathon schedule: 10:48! Too bad I had to walk after that. Ha. My pace was the same as it was when I just leisurely jogged along the whole 30 minutes last week.
Other than that, not much to report. Went to the gym with Vanderkitten Sista' yesterday afternoon, and tomorrow is Week 5 Day 2 but it's supposed to rain so I'll probably do it on the treadmill when I meet her at the gym tomorrow.
OH! I remember what I was going to do! Since I'm on month 2 now and super proud of myself for not skipping a day, I thought I'd post all my stats from month 1….kind of a summary so far so I can compare these numbers next month:
Week 1 Day 1: 30 minutes run on my treadmill. Pre-Garmin so I don't know my stats. :)
Week 1 Day 2: 30 minutes on the elliptical on Christmas.
Week 1 Day 3: 2 miles with Athena. 27:07 minutes. 13:28 pace
Week 2 Day 1: 30 minutes on my bike trainer.
