quick quick... I just finished my 5K..I ran it in 24.28...not my PR but the fastest in a long long time. YAY!
I might try blogging on this more often.
Today, I ran on the treadmill at the YMCA. Since running on the treadmill is not like running on the road or trail I decided to have an incline (averaging 1.2% grade. I ran 7.21 miles in 62 minutes. The first mile I ran at 2% grade, the 2nd one with 1.5%, the 3rd at 1%, half a mile at 2%, the other half on 1.5%, .5th and 6th at 1% and last mile at .5% for half a mile and the last half was 0%. I really enjoyed this, it keep my interest the whole hour.y I seriously think that I could have run a few more miles and be okay. My knee hasn't been too bad, been taking an anti-flamatory. Tomorrow just an easy 30 minute jog...rest on Saturday with some stretching and race on Sunday :)
I don't know if it was the two nice pieces of under armour I got for Christmas or the fast approaching new year but I have the running itch to run a marathon again. I need all the tips and pointers I can get...this will be the first one that I will be attempting. I was average 20-25 miles a week before December and ran 3 months with 100 miles and a few that I should have gotten but knee problems were in the way. I want to find a good book to get from the library to help train...suggests??? Also I want to know about diets and marathon...what should I be eating?
I just registered for a 5K on Sunday...The Great New Years Eve 5K Race. I have been running on the treadmill for the last 3 weeks and able to run 3.1 miles in 24 to 25 minutes...so it would great o run like that on Sunday but am a little nervous tha running on a treadmill is sooo different than on roads/pavement/hills...
So i guess that's all the babbling I got right now...
