Month #2, Week #2: 5 miles, here I come

Sunday, February 12, 2006

This was the end of my 4 mile training sessions. Now I begin 5 miles, 2 times a week for two weeks. The training is starting to get a little tough. Not only the distance/time aspect; but also the time I have to make in the day to go running. I now have to set aside a about 40 minutes to go and run. I get home at 4 o'clock. I have to pick the kids up by 4:30. It gets dark by 6pm. I can't leave the kids at home and go run. I can't take them with me if I hope to accomplish anything that satisfies the definition of running. So, as you can see, there is a very small window of opportunity to run. Plus, I am afraid of the dark.

On a more positive note, I ran 4 miles in 29:30(MM:SS). That is about 7:22 per mile. I am very proud of that time. However, I believe the one mile loop that I run is actually just short of a mile. So, I need to get a pedometer and measure it to be sure. I could be totally fooling myself and really be running a ten minute mile.
