Feeling cocky today so I decided to try and interval run to really get back into it. Felt really good, I think the pace was a little slow, but it just felt good to turn the speed up a little. I'll try and easy Tempo run next Friday and see how it goes.

Another Good Run

5 Easy Miles - 46:00 - 9:12 Pace

Felt good again today, ran at a really good pace, much quicker that last time, and my lungs felt a lot better. I was able to concentrate on my form more this time, and worried less about breathing. Looks like I will be locked in for the Saugatuck Town Crier on the 16th of April, need to decide on the 5K or 10K. The way I'm going, hopefully the 10K. Need to get some outside runs in though.

Great Run

6 Easy Miles - 56:15 - 9:20 Pace

Felt great today during my run, legs and knees felt good, the belt was moving quickly under me, kept good form. My lungs were a little tired, but they will catch up soon...they will have to.

Lungs Getting Better

4 Easy Miles - 38:00 - 9:30 Pace

Lungs were better today, feet were moving smoothly under me. My legs were a bit tired, and the knee a bit sore...but I think that is to be expected.

Running with Full Lungs

4 Easy Miles - 38:00 - 9:30 Pace

Felt good enough to run today, the sinus infection has seemed to go away, my face didn't feel like it was going to explode. My lungs however, they did. Legs felt a bit weary and unused, and I'm sure all the comfort food I have been eating didn't help. Still felt good, hopefully I feel well enough Wednesday as well.

Vacation Running...and Getting Sick

2 Easy Miles - 16:34 - 8:16 Pace

Wow do I love running outside, it was a beautful day here in Florida....problem is, I am getting sick, and 2 miles was all my wheezing lungs could take. Too bad, cause I was running at suck a good clip. Hopefully this illness ends soon.

Sore

3 Easy Miles - 28:21 - 9:27 Pace

Legs were a little sore today, not my muscles, by my joints. I think between upping the miles and doing Plyo workouts, they need a rest.....that will come in Florida.

Felt really good today, legs were loose and moving under me well, left knee was a little sore, but nothing of concern. Even picked up the pace quite a bit, had my lungs working at the end. See how I feel tomorrow.

A Little Sore

3 Easy Miles - 28:45 - 9:35 Pace

Legs were a little sore today, knee had a slight pain, but all in all good. I think the socks are doing wonders, even with just keeping my calves warm and loose. I am trying to figure out how and when to fit plyometrics/P90X Plyo into my routine, maybe start with Satrudays so I have resting periods after, and go from there.

Compression Day 2

3 Easy Miles - 28:45 - 9:35 Pace

ANother easy run, no pain, socks felt good. See how I feel in the morning, might just do 2 miles on Wednesday.

Compression

3 Easy Miles - 28:30 - 9:30 Pace

Wore my compression socks today for the first time, they felt great. My calves were warmed up it felt like, and I didn't feel any twinges. Hopefully these workout for me.

Day Two

2 Easy Miles - 19:30 - 9:45 Pace

No socks yet, but still felt good. Did the stair stepper before again to warm up, didn't do abs first this time.....really just jumped on the treadmill right away to talk with Gina. Then, when I got ready to move, I was concentrating so hard on no hurting my self and feeling for every little twinge and pain...that I barely chatted with her...lol.

Anywho, felt ok, still just two miles, I am slow, I don't have much cardio endurance. it will come back, just feels good to run again.

Ok, I'm back

2 Easy Miles - 20:00 - 10:00 Pace

Got back to it today, with a few modificaitons. I hit the stair stepper before running to loosen up my legs a little, also did abs and weights first, just to get the blood flowing. Waiting on my compression socks.....yeah, I am looking for any little advantage to keep me on my feet.

It was painful today, which I expected. Between the lack of running for 5 weeks, 10 lbs of holiday weight, and 10 lbs of lifting weight, it just didn't feel the same putting one foot in front of the other...but it did feel good to be moving.

See how I feel tomorrow, and how Wed goes.
