2nd day of running another beautiful 70 degree day. Same interval run one minute walk two. My husband took a half day today so I was able to run around the block. Pretty easy actually it seemed to get easier about 15 minutes in maybe because I got into a rhythm. My shins and right knee are hurting. I need to take it easy so I don't get injured. It took me 40 minutes to run/walk around the block 5 times 2.5 miles 16 minute miles that are 2/3 walking not too bad. I think I will do a mile trial after week two. It started to rain right as I was finishing up perfect timing. Cold front coming in tonight. Tomorrow ice and snow, Friday the same. I plan to do weights tomorrow for sure and probably friday, I'll pick up running again on Saturday.
I like the time running gives me to reflect. As I passed people outside there houses it gave me a chance to pray for them and consider how I can minister to their needs. The elderly lady around the corner does she have a husband? Would she appreciate a meal or a dinner invitation? The young couples around me, should I put together a luncheon with some of my friends and invite them too?
Still excited about running disappointed the weather will be turning crummy.
