Re: Cool Running for the Week of April 6th

I hope you guys dont mind, but I think I might join you in here to keep me accountable. I don't run nearly as far as you guys do, and over the past year i almost didn't run at all. just started back in Feb. Not sure i'll ever be (or have any desire to be LOL) a marthon runner, but I am hoping to at least get a 10k race under by belt this year.

I'm running on a treadmill at the moment, I prefer outside hoping to transition back out shortly..but i could use new shoes at this point.

On Sat I did my first official outside run for this year...a very hilly 3.2 k up at our cabin, then 10 mins of powerwalking in 1' of snow

Sunday rest day. hamstrings were sore from the snow trek.

Monday, 2.6 miles, 35 mins.

Thanks, Rich, for starting the thread! Wow just 7 weeks until your next marathon!! COOL! So spring has finally sprung in Michigan??!! ALL RIGHT!

Jen, welcome! Glad to have you here. Girl, never say you won't do a marathon ... the more you run, the more you'll think seriously about it, trust me! I never thought I'd ever be marathon material, and truthfully, I still can't believe I've done not one, but TWO !! Runners are truly insane creatures!

Great job, Fowlergirl!!!

As for me, just 5.1 miles in today .. it was HOT and humid and blech.

I totally hear ya, Jen, on the concrete legs. That's how mine were yesterday (Monday). It is amazing, though, that if you PERSEVERE, you can overcome your own body after a mile or two!

Great job!
