Yesterday, I did my first run. Yes, I probably should have started a month before, but whatever. I’ve figured out a loop that is about 1 mile here, and I ran 3 of those yesterday. My plan is to run 3 loops again today and tomorrow, do a speed workout and then a jog over the weekend, and go up to 4 loops throughout next week. If I can keep moving up 1 loop every week, I am doing well. Hopefully, by September, I will be in good enough shape to have a good final Kent cross country season.
Update:
Storm clouds are moving in, and I don’t know when they’ll get here. This could be either good (rain comes in, cools things, and leaves quickly so that I can go run) or bad (thunderstorms that last for a while, meaning I won’t be able to run before dinner).
Update 2:
Yes, I got my running in. Good. I suspect that the loop I described may in fact be quite a bit longer than 1 mile. Also, I am thinking about posting something about my working out every day, just to keep myself dedicated. Not that anyone really cares about me working out. My coblogger may have some more interesting things to say on the subject of exercise, though…
