Running has been good this past week. I've been hitting the gym almost everyday, running my 3 miles and more importantly doing my stretching. I still have to take care of my back, cos to much to stress will not do it any good, and I am going to be the one suffering for it.
3 miles, tues, wed and thurs, thats not bad right. Today I skipped the gym cos as I had my physical theraphy session. It was good, did some stretching, and learned some new exercises to avoid shin splints, cos that my was Achilles heel last Saturday during the 1st run. Maybe the exercises are going to help - only time will tell.
I am very excited to try out the new pair of running shoes that I purchased last week from Runners Factory in Los Gatos. Actually running shoes - they don't look as good as my Nike's but they are supposed to be more effective and would also help reduce injury- at least that's what the sales guy said. He made me try on 10 pairs and after 30 mins of jogging in and around the store, we decided on an ascis pair. Given the amount of miles I am going to be doing while training, I might need another pair for the marathon.
Its been raining the past week, and this weekend is going to be no better - so we run in the rain...gees--that's gonna be fun - "NOT"...........as Sean would say.
