    Even I went running yesterday! Did 2.5 miles and only walked a little bit of it. We're having glorious weather these days and I got home early enough to get daylight for at least half of my run. Think I may have to try that again today...

    After a month of running, I'm up to 4 miles at a time now, on the treadmill at least and only if I keep my speed to about 6.3 mph. I ran inside yesterday and am meeting a friend tonight for a 3-miler outside tonight. I haven't kept track of my running miles like I do my cycling miles, but I'm trying to run 3 to 4 times a week, 3 to 4 miles at a time. My order of preference right now is to (1) run outside with someone, (2) run on the treadmill, and (3) run outside by myself. Running alone is hard for me.

    So far so good though. A duathalon may be in my future.

    Happy running to all of you and good luck to Wahine with her intenstive challenge. That's awesome!

    I ran a whoppin 12 minutes with 1 minute run-one minute walk. This is my part of coming back from that evil muscle injury I have been carrying around with me since October.

    See if I don't.

    I took 9 days off from running to let my knee rest. Yesterday I hopped on the treadmill for an easy 2.5. It felt good to run, even though it was on the dreadmill.

    I did 3.8 km today and felt crappy. My calves hurt again. I walked more in the last half. Looking forward to seeing the new PT next week.
