Big running day today. I’m sure I lost some weight from today’s run.
I’m training for the Robie Creek half marathon that occurs in April each year. Today’s run was supposed to be a 1 hour 45 minute run. I did an out and back. I went out for 52:30 and back in 50:00 for a total time of 1:42:30. I started out much slower than I did for last week’s run. I remembered how I felt last week – it didn’t help that my back was in pain last week – so I made an effort to start out relatively slow this week. Next week’s 2 hour run I will try and have a more even pace.
And even though I felt wiped out today, I didn’t spend a lot of time lying around today. My wife has the flu and needed some well deserved attention. I don’t know about you, but when my wife is not feeling well, I want to help her. Tomorrow, I am going into work late and leaving early.
