Sunday 3/27/11

got about 6 miles in - longest run for me!
Also ran with a good friend today, first time I've run with someone.  Talking and running is a bit harder, but the run was easier.

March 2011

week of 3/20-26:  I got about 20 miles in.  Building up endurance again, and trying to get more distance and speed.  They seem to be opposing forces for me.

4 miles

there was snow on the ground, but I got pretty warm on the first half of my run.  The second half involved both the wind in my face and the hill, so it was slow-going.  My hamstring hurts, and I think I'm taking a rest day tomorrow!

2011, here I come!

I haven't blogged in a while, but I have kept my running up.  I finished my first race ever, the Turkey Trot 5K in Norwich, NY.  I finished in about 32 minutes, which is a bit slow, but I was recovering from a nasty cold. 

I also discovered running in the cold is not really any fun, but it does still feel good when you finish. 

My main running goal this year - to run the Binghamton Bridge Run half-marathon in May. 

I got 4 slow miles in today, but this is only the second time I've run since I have recovered from strep throat and the holidays.
