Hello fellow runners!
I was chatting with Sonnie the other day and she warned me about not warming up properly. I thought that I was starting to get shin splints. The next day I skipped my morning workout and went to a yoga class instead. It was perfect. The majority of the class was floor poses which helped tremendusly. The next day I decided to warm-up for 2 more minutes (I'm already doing 5) and slow my pace way down. I think I was a little too ambitious. ;-)
I started day 4 of my training and moved up to alternating 2 minutes of running with 2 minutes of walking. Honestly, I was a little worried about being able to run for 2 minutes, but I did fine. I did have to skip my weights and my sauna this morning because the session today was 44 minutes. That didn't include the warming up, cooling down, or stretching before and after. I'm already getting to the gym at 5:45 am! Maybe I'll combine my stretching with my sauna. I'm just glad that I have podcasts and good music to listen to on my ipod. I don't think I could do it for that long without it.
Keep up the good work and the updates.
