Two small victories
Sep. 26th, 2011 11:37 am1) endurance victories: yesterday, I ran at least 9 70 second intervals (meaning 80 seconds of rest), and today, I ran ten 60 second intervals, with 75 seconds of rest.
2) aerobic health victories: Yesterday, I definitely over-did it. But, it wasn't anywhere near as bad as overdoing it had been over the summer. It wasn't pleasant, but I could deal with it, easily. This was starting to concern me, because I didn't remember being able to overdo it so easily, and have the effects last so long, when I was younger.
Unfortunately, the rains are returning... this was when I hoped to be able to do a slow jog for 20 minutes, and I can't yet. (It's a lot easier to go out in the rain and jog for 20 minutes than to start/stop/etc.).
Fortunately, I still don't melt in the rain - I have proof once again! But I have to figure out what to do when it gets colder.
