Which is exactly why I started this blog. I'm hoping this pressure of publicly working toward a goal will help keep me on track (pun intended). It worked today in spite of a headache and being tired from staying up late (catching up with an old friend).
I did learn something new, Vibram KSOs are slippery. Keep that in mind if you decide to run on wet surfaces to avoid any of this:
After stretching my slightly sore calves and then the rest of my legs, I did this week's routine of 1 mile walking Reximus Maximus (all 25 lbs of him), followed by a 1 mile run, and 1 mile walking cool down. My calves stayed noticeably tight for the first 1/2 mile which I reached at 5'38. But by the second leg they were comfortably warm. All in all, this three mile routine took about an hour. I know my mile time is still nothing to brag about...but as the blog title says, we're taking baby steps.
