5 Minute treadmill warmup

Tuesday training 5:30 p.m. Pratt Track:

1 1/3 mile run/walk
Had some trouble with urine leakage again (possibly too much coffee)
Sunset was gorgeous and running around the track in the near dark was really beautiful.
Quite chilly and breezy. Brrr. My legs felt really, really good even hours after the run.

Wednesday training 3:30 p.m. Bright Sun and warm.

Run/walk 1 1/2 mile. Ran longer on this session than last night. Walked just long enough to get my breath back and asuage the stinging in my throat from cool air.

Lengthened my stride with the longer run. Felt quite a lot of jarring on the uneven trail terrain on this route, but legs/ankles felt strong and not wobbly. Little to no leakage.

Tuesday Training at Pratt Track. 3:00 p.m.

Ran/Walk 1 1/2 miles. Lots more running this time, even 2 little sprints to catch up with DD :D

It was sunny, bright and the air was cool but pleasant. Perfect for running...not so chilly that it made my throat sting.

I was timing the run/walk portions as per Couch to 5K but quickly found that they were far below my fitness level.

All those months of walking with poles really did build a good fitness base. So, my new strategy is to used percieved exertion to train to a higher level. But still keep the training withing the run/walk/no injury parameters.

And yaaay to Detrol LA. Only the tiniest of leak. No urge to pee halfway around the track (and then halfway around again) either. Hee hee.

Wednesday Pratt Track...
