Otherwise doing great!

Since I skipped Tuesday's run due to life and not feeling up to it, I tried to make…

I got 2/3 into it before failing and that's pretty good. Next time I'll hopefully get a bit better. Today I did a slow, easy 4 miles.…

9/1 -- 3.25 miles 9/5 -- 6.25 miles 9/6 -- 3 miles 9/8 -- 5.1 miles 17.6/50 Feeling pretty on track now and not as much discomfort as I often have. Typically when I run 2 days in a row my hip lets me know I shouldn't have (I think this is an extension of the bad back which can cause muscles around my hip to overcompensate)…

9/1 -- 3.25 miles 9/5 -- 6.25 miles 9/6 -- 3 miles 12.5/50 Put myself back on track with an easy one on the treadmill (it's 90 degrees outside, screw THAT) at a comfortable speed. If I go again Thu I'll be fully back on schedule.

9/1 -- 3.25 miles 9/5 -- 6.25 miles 9.5/50 The holiday weekend has my schedule off as I normally try to run Tue/Thu/Sat with an optional run on Sun if my legs are up for it. But with the holiday I got nothing on the weekend. Made up for it by doing my first continuous 10K in a gorgeous hilly park after a lovely BBQ with…

This is my first time for posting on the forums (ever) but I've been trying out the running for a bit more than a year now. I'm one of those people that if, a few years ago, you told me I'd run 5K someday, I'd have laughed in your face. But I did the Couch 2 5K program on my treadmill, and to my surprise I'm sticking to…
