It was raining this morning and I decided to go out anyways. I'm sure glad I did. The other run I did, I ended up walking a few times, which is okay and what I expected. Today, I ran from my house, to the park, around the park twice and got half way back to my house before I stopped to walk. The run was a total of 20 minutes, almost on the dot. I'm really happy with my performance so far. Oh yeah, and running in the rain is awesome. It was so relaxing. Just a sprinkle but enough to get wet.
I really worked on my breathing, which I have a problem taking deep breaths. I have a problem with this when cycling too. I think its getting better. The only thing I notice now that is a little sore is my left shin. Am I taking shorter strides and I dont think I'm impacting too much. I'm trying to be smooth. I look way up ahead and if its bouncing, I try to smooth it out. I also measured only once but I was running about 92 strides/minute. Maybe my body just needs to get used to running or something.
