Today’s Run
After a rest-day yesterday (Day 7), tonight marked the beginning of week 2 in my “Return to Running” program. This includes:
- 3 to 5-minute walking warmup
- 4 x 5-minute run / 2-minute walk
- 3 to 5+ minute walking cooldown
It was nice to actually get in more minutes running than walking for the first time since my return from injury. I was a little fatigued since Olivia and I had done an hour of aqua jogging earlier today. However, my legs still felt really good throughout on a perfect evening through the streets of Bellevue. In total I got in 20 minutes of running and 12+ minutes of walking for 3.1-miles completed.
- Miles: 3.1
- Time: 32:29 minutes
- Pace: 10:29
- Shoes: Saucony Kinvara 3 (#8)
- Route: Sawyer Brown, George Patton
