5.0 miles on treadmill 66.53 minutes
As I mentioned in the last post I was dreading this one. I haven't run 5 miles in about 3 years. I cleaned the house, got a massage(won't do this again on my hell workout day) ate a little lunch and waited until the absolute last hour in the day I had before I had to pick up my son from his friend's house.
I hopped on the treadmill, cranked up the Prince, Cirque De Soleil, and ACDC CD tunes and started running. The first 3.5 miles felt long. I kept a 12:35 mile pace and then had to drop back to 13:20 mile pace for the last 1.5 miles. It was a killer and I was sick the rest of the night from the physical challenge I just put my body through.
I took plenty of Ibuprofen and drank lots of H20 and look forward to my cross training day on Sunday.
I'm "living life" and "training this race" and I am on my way.

ReplyDeleteWhat you are doing is great - keep up the good work! I like to run on the treadmill as I watch trash TV taped on my Tivo - so I don't feel so bad watching the Real Housewives on Bravo if I'm working out - it's a balance of good for me with bad for me! Your birthday's coming up, are you going to ask for Tivo/DVR??
