Thursday run...

So, weather was nice, and I thought another run should be good. Felt a bit tired since nipper #2 woke me up several times last night.

Still, enough excuses. Did the same route as Tuesday, in the same time. 25 mins. Not sure why, felt it was a bit harder, but it seems i'm getting into a running 'routine' and can just run, without worrying about pace and breathing, just getting on with it.

It's also quite fun running in the dark. I took a head torch, but tonight got fed up with it and carried it instead. It was making my head throb. Perhaps it was too tight... I could see my surroundings for most of the way without it, and I suppose it's more for cars than anything. Not that I see many.

And it's maybe less boring.

Finally, another run.

Went a bit further than before, 2.25 miles, in 25 mins. Which puts 1/2 marathon time at 2.5 hours.

Before I worked that out, I was feeling quite chuffed with myself for going rather well. I suppose it's progress, of the slow sort. And i've only been out three times, to get my er, running legs.

I think i'm at the stage where I can run at a pace when I don't need to keep stopping. I'll stop and walk once or twice on a two mile run like that, and it's deliberate (not desperate...).

Now i'm better, i'll try to get out three times a week, perhaps Weds or Thurs.
