Today started good with a 4min improvement in my 6 k run, and balance in my heart rate zone. Felt a little bit of rhythm in my run. It was good, I don't expect that big an improvement that often but it's starting to feel good so I'm just going to roll with it.
I think this running thing may actually stick with me. I've tried many times before and it was always so painful, somehow though reading that damn book has changed my whole perspective and I think about it all the time. I even contemplate running twice a day. Though I've been informed it's a great way to over do it and end up with an injury. So I'll resist the urge and keep to my 4 runs a week for awhile until I've adjusted and built the stamina required to Forrest Gump the hell out of my running. It's alright though I've got 2 more books to acquire that will help me get through my long hard road of training..
I've got another running book you can read if you like.
ReplyDeleteTold you these things just take time. It's starting to come together, just try not to overdo it. It's easy to get excited at this stage and go a bit too hard, but the holding back a little will be worth it.
You following BFL or the half program?
