Sticking to my "Every other Day" plan up to now, and having rested yesterday, it was time for another morning run before heading to work this afternoon and evening.
As I am trying to build slowly, I am having to find new routes to run, maybe adding a little distance at times, or simply trying to find a more runner friendly route. In order to get to the nice park where I can run traffic free, I need to be up to running around 10 Km runs, and I am still well short of that - It's 3 km to the park, so today I went the opposite direction than my otehr runs (and the park), and another urban route, but with a little excursion through a small linear park, which at least got me away from the traffic for 500m or so.
I started to feel tired after 20 minutes running, which I guess is understandable, but hung on to complete a run of around 4.25 Km (thank you gmaps pedoemeter), in 23:25 - a pace of around 5:30 per Km. The same distance as one of my other recent runs, but anything different is always useful, so won't complain.
This brings us to the end of March. I have totalled 35 Km this month, not huge, but with February being Zero, and January coming to an end before the 15th, it's not a bad way to re-start, and with the weight coming down, I can build on this throughout April. I may even set myself some goals next month......
