3rd run is in the books with only one day’s rest. A jog wasn’t on the original schedule for the day. Running isn’t the only way to get fit, and to stave off shin splints, I decided it be would be smart to diversify the exercises and get some bodyweight work in to be a more well rounded fit person.
With my current living situation having the real space to complete a HIIT worka=out at home isn’t really in the cards with everybody working from home for the foreseeable future. SO I ventured outside to the nearby park and grab some vitamin D at the same time.
I planned to use the yoga mat to separate my body from the ground. IT hadn’t rained in an awhile, but the ground was sopping wet. Wasn’t sure it if was the ground defrosting from the winter or what, but it was way to wet to be doing calisthenics on the ground. Proudly I hot routed back up to place and out on my running kit and went out on my usual route.
Run breakdown:
3.5 Miles Avergave Mile pace – 11:12 minutes per Mile
I had trouble keeping a steady pace on this run. I would blame not being mentally prepared for this run from the get-go. Moat run days, I now I’m going to run 36 to 24 hours before I take my first step. No matter what the result was, I got out and ran after a roadblock. That is important to me, and this habit of running I am trying to instill for the long haul.
