Runny knows - Feb 12 to 17

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.

4 miles today. That makes 29 miles in 5 days. Phew!! I got the OK for a day off tomorrow.

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.

I did about 3.5 yesterday outside with a friend of mine. It's harder for me to run outside than in given the cold, but we had a good run all the same. She's nursing some injuries and didn't mind slowing down for me.

Well, I'd really like to go for a run today (the sun's even out!) but there is so much darn ICE around that it's probably not such a good idea! We had snow, then freezing rain, then large amounts of rain yesterday, then the temperature dropped so all that slush and all those puddles froze. Not cool. So it's either the stationary bike (boring) or go to the Y tonight and use the rock gym (appropriate given the feeling of being about ready to start climbing the walls from being cooped up)--and I'm trying to think of productive ways to use some of this pent-up energy.
