So, having absolutely thrown the weekend to the wind, I decided that I simply had to run this morning regardless of what time I got up – I mean it’s only one mile.
Thus, I made it! I walked my 3/4 mile and ran the 1/4 mile. It was truly difficult. However, I noticed that maintaining a better stride was a little easier. My legs were doing much better, but the lungs tired very quickly. I also did not notice the foot slapping when I tried and was more successful with the mid-foot strike. Hmmm…could this improve with practice?
Also, I did get up later than normal this morning, which meant no morning gym session. Oh well, I’ll get back there soon!
Overall, I am beginning to feel healthier and stronger – finally!
