3 miles LGCT 4/13/14

~38 mins though I didn't actually time myself religiously.  Today I didn't feel 3 miles was that long at all. I mean I didn't even break a sweat until I reached the half way point, so much so that I actually skipped the water break on the way to the half way point and took it on the way back. Ok I will stop bragging now. Today was a day of positives. Ram and I were among the first to finish the 3 miles which was pretty good because am not a fast runner by any stretch of imagination. (3.0/38 min ~ 4.7 mph, that's not fast). I also felt generally happy and cheerful. In fact I was grinning when Coach Anu returned.

I do have a small trouble with knee pain when I start running and Coach Anu suggested I walk for a while to warm up before breaking into a run. I am going to try that next week.

Welcome to my run journal

I started my Half Marathon training a few weeks ago. Following the advice of the coaches, I am starting to blog my runs in this blog.

If you want to follow my progress through to the half marathon, come join me here.
