I ran out towards Mini GU corner and I ran into my friend Jeff Long so we ran together for a little bit but then I had to start my stop and stretching routine and he kept going. I was able to go 2.5 miles before I started having issues with the old IT band and then I had to do my stretches on the way back, but I was able to finish it;-) When I returned home my son Ethan wanted to run a little bit so we went for a little mile run, he has been bugging about running but I have held off until as long as I could, I had to keep reeling him in he wanted to go to fast!!! We ended up doing an 8:22 mile for the first and I think he could have went a lot faster if I would have let him, after we were done he wanted to go some more so we went another half mile and then I put my foot down at no more, I didn't want him to over do it... I asked him if he had a good time and he said "Ya it felt good to run, it just feels good," "I want to do some more". I told him no more today but for sure on Saturday, and he said "okay Dad Saturday it is then". Another monster is born;-) My average pace was 8:30 HR average was at 136 total time between the two runs was 56:00 and some change... Finished up with some Push-ups and strength training on my lower half and then 12 minutes on the elliptical...
See ya tomorrow. |
