I was able to do it yet again today - so there has been some good changes in my running conditioning. After my usual group training session this morning where I had a personal record in deadlifts, I was able to run for a half-mile at the end of group without stopping. Not saying it was fast or anything, it took me 5:10 to run that half-mile, but I could have gotten in at least one more lap I think. I didn't want to push my hamstrings after heavy deadlifts. So my "fluke" of being able to do this the other day wasn't a "fluke" after all!

I meet with the coach at my gym to get my training plan Thursday morning, and she isn't even charging me. I just need an idea how to proceed so I don't push things too fast.

A long time ago, I posted here that I am not a "runner". Well, that seems to have been inaccurate I may always be in the fast turtle division, and I will never attempt to run on pavement, but it gets me back in the woods and that is all that matters! Can't play with heavy weights and kettlebells all of the time!
