Easy Does It

2 mi. in 12:20 min. at 0% incline, top speed 5.1 mph.

Just an easy run after my 5 mile run on Saturday.

Coach Jeni called to talk about my upcoming race. Some things to remember for the week before a race:

• Hydrate
• Sleep well as many nights as I can. Probably Friday night won't be a restful night due to excitement. Remember sleep is cumulative, so sleep well early in the week.
• Watch what I eat all week to avoid digestive upsets.

Wintry weather is in the forecast for the rest of the week. Looks like I'll be running on the treadmill as prep for the race on Saturday.

Cold & snowy here today so I ran on the treadmill at the gym The upside of going to the gym is that it is indoors and not weather dependent. The downside is that it is pretty much the same every time.

I am still doing 3 min runs/2 min. walks. I struggle to get through all six circuits so I know I am not ready to move to a 4/1 circuit. I realize my body is adjusting to this new activity, but darn it, I want it to adjust faster! Slow & steady wins the race says my DD1.
