Thanks! I think part of the reason I was having problems yesterday is because I didn't do a thorough warmup. I did one today and it felt a lot better. I'm really excited at the thought of running 4 miles! I want to be a marathon runner already haha
We all started out running 1, 2, then 3, then 4 and then on to longer runs - you'll get there! Build up to it slowly; it is an awesome feeling with each milestone you hit!!0 -
I had to take it easy today, and prove to myself, that, yes, I have an injury and need to maybe take a few days off from running.
I also think it's time for new shoes.
Anyway, a slow 3 miles today.

I love 3mile/ 5k runs now, 3 months ago they seemed such a long distance, they are now light little jaunts. it's addictive
14 Oct - 5 mile with hill intervals, this morning 3 miles easy, finally got a very low average heart rate 124 which is 70% of max for me. Runs are now done in the dark and wet, but I feel like a proper runner as I now want to go out regardless of the weather.
Have fun.
2 days running left for me this month before having a 2 week break.
