This one is even more scary. I got out of bed this morning and went for a run.
I think I pushed myself too hard the first time (somewhat to attempt to prove a point), so I pulled back a little this morning and didn't go as far as I went on Tuesday. In the end I did just over 1.6 miles in about 16 minutes. So, still kept the 10 minute mile pace, but didn't push myself as hard.
On Tuesday's run, I did about a 60/40 ratio run to walk. Today I did more like a 75/25 if not more. I figure if I keep this distance for the next few runs, I should be able to run it 100% by early next week.
I mentioned this the other day, but the funniest part for me so far is that I am coughing like I started smoking again. I guess that's what happens when you start using parts of your lungs that have not been used in a REALLY long time.
OK, next run is on Saturday. I swear I will not try to turn this in to a blog about me running :)
