I ran today for the first time in several months, and it was pretty rough. As I mentioned in my last post, I’m using an iphone app called “Ease into 10k.” I’ve used the app before and like it very much, but I had to stop running because of work. In October of last year I began working 12 hour days, 5-6 nights per week. Eventually fatigue took over, and I just couldn’t wake early up in the afternoons to go for a run; so I lost ground and gained weight.
Because it’s only been a few months since I’d run, I thought it would be ok to move quickly thru the first could of easy weeks, without taking many days off for the first 4 weeks.
Today’s workout consisted of:
5 Minute warmup walk
3 minute run followed by a 1 minute walk. Repeated this 5 times
5 minute cooldown walk.
It felt OK, but wow was I tired. The good news is; No pain! Chi Running is going well.
