Running Update

Since last week I have been cutting back on my mileage. My plans to increase my runs from 5 to 6.5 km has not materialised.

My worst days were last Friday and Saturday when I wasn't in the mood to run at all. On Friday, I ran 3 km on the treadmill before getting bored. I walked one km and ran the last one km. Total = 5km (287 kcal). On Saturday, I managed to run 1.6 km at the Klang stadium and walked about 2.4 km.

The Sunday run was a lot better for me. I ran with Albert, Jimmy and another Klang Pacer guy. We did the usual 6km route. I managed to keep up with the guys until 5km when I became tired with a sore left quadriceps muscle. I stopped running and walked 100m where I had to run on a badly pot-holed road. I resumed running and finished 6km in 38 minutes.

On Monday, I had a sore left hamstring - a forced rest day.

Today : It is sunny and it looks quite hot but I will be running today.

6K in 38 mins is not bad at all! Hope your comeback goes smoothly. With patience you'll be able to regain back the lost miles.
