Re: Just finishing week 2

Just finished my second 5K. Don't know where I ranked, but I was 2 min faster than my first 5K. These damn hills are killing me. I have been running outside a lot more. The tread mill is easier, but running outside is alot nicer.

Have a great weekend.

Re: Just finishing week 2

About 2 weeks ago I did something to my right leg. Swollen ankle, bruised shin and a sore knee, so I took so time off. Everything seems to be better and ran for 25 min on Tuesday. Will slowly get back up to 30 min runs. I have also signed up for my next 5k on April 23rd. Hopefully the leg and the po...

Re: Just finishing week 2

Last week was a little slower week for me in running. I am finally over this damn cold and will get back to my routine. I only ran 2 times last week. I am trying not to be upset with my self for missing my third run. With the pollen in the air this week, I will run inside today. I have signed up for...

First 5K

Hey all. Finished my first 5K today. It was definitely a challenge running with about 200 people. My pace was a little slower, but I finished the 3.1 miles in under 35 minutes. Not my best time and I definitely need to run outside more than I have. I had a more difficult time with the hills here in ...

Forecast for Saturday is sunny and 60 degrees, so it should be a beautiful day to run. I am currently re-running week 9 but have increased my speed a bit. I am averaging abou...

Re: Just finishing week 2

Michelle, I am looking forward to the 5k. Can't wait to do it. I will keep everyone updated after I finish it. Tomorrow I will finish my last 30 min run and close out my 9 weeks of training. Hard to believe I have been running for 9 weeks. I feel better than I have in years. Good luck with your last...
