Max Speed: 8.4 mph
Ave Speed: 3.3 mph
Time: 35 minutes
Distance: 1.92 miles.
Today I succeeded in running for 53 minutes. But I was running SLOW (you will notice the slower ave. speed above). Man I can't believe how slow it was. There was a guy who almost lapped me, while walking. I'm still going to take my little trophies where I can get them though. I have to admit that it feels good to succeed at a goal, even if the goal is minuscule compared to an old guy walking. :)
I love the progress I'm showing, but I'm frustrated by the lack of progress in my muscles... The reason I ran so slow today was because my back/calves/feet hurt. My heart rate was never too high, but my muscles couldn't keep up. I'm hoping that with a bit of diligence my muscles will be able to keep up with the rest of me.
I also tested my resting heart rate today and it was 75. That is way too high I think. I guess my cardiovascular system is just not where I wish it was. But what do you expect with someone who's been overweight for a couple of years?
Keep up the running! It's awesome.
