So, I only ran twice last week due to stubbing my toe and arch pain. I ran on Tues and did the Run through Redlands 5k on Sun. that is what I'm excited about. I finally found race results on the webiste and I've beat my PR! Yes, tackling those hills has been helping.
My only other 5k run was...
This week I am running on Wed, Fri and doing the Run Through Redlands 5k on Sun. So I set out this morning. It is much cooler than it has been. I don't do well with cooler weather, especially my footsies who like to be nice and toasty, so I wasn't even sure I was going to be taking my VFF's off...
Forgot to use my inhaler before heading out, but it was still a good run. The weather has really warmed up. Went from being below 70 to the high 80's pretty much over night. I'm not going to complain though. At least it seems to be mostly done raining. For a while there I wondered if the sun was...
I'm behind due to a week vacationing with the family for spring break. Idid my Mon and Wed run last weeklike normal. Both went exremely well. I am really happy with how using my inhaler has helped with my breahing and how attacking the hills local to me in a slow and steady manner has been...
This week was freaking fantastic! The weather has warmed up and so I've been doing the last 5 to 10 min of my running barefoot as well as my cool down walk.
On day two of this week I hit a street with a dip on it that I have made sure to bypass, but have had in mind as a goal. It wasn't nearly...
Week four went great! I didn't run on Mon due to the bruised feeling spot on my right foot, but by Wed it was gone so I headed out. I'm working hard to make sure I tackle the hills around me with gusto, both up and down since I have different issues with both.
Today I came up one of the streets...
I had a good time with week three. Starting over and tackling the hills was definitely the way to go! May not start week four this morning, still not 100% sure. May start it and see how it feels. if not, I can always head back home. Iwent dancing in cowboy boots on Fri night then wore them on...
I had a blast this week! Using the inhaler is making running much more enjoyable, for sure. I've been tackling the hills around here instead of dreading them which is nice. I think starting the whole program over was just what I needed to motivate me and help me work up.
I've also been making...
Weather was great this morning. I was so excited to get out there again I could hardly stand myself. lol I figure by next month I'll be able to run bare again. Woot!
I was diagnosed with asthma in my early 20's. I'd always had some issues mainly with allergies and when I got sick but had never...
I started this program in March 2010 and did well with it. Once finished I signed up and ran barefoot the AFC 5k in San Diego. It was so empowering and fun! In July I moved. Instead of flat desert I now live in a hilly area and a higher elevation. This really had me working and cutting back my...
