Day 3

Okay,

I should explain that my day numbers are according to the training schedule, not the days of the week. So, if I am "resting" I will not count that as a day.

For day 3 (which was yesterday June 8th) I was scheduled to do 3 "easy" miles with 3 strides. I did wait until the evening to run when a cool front came in with a wonderful breeze. I walked out the door and forgot my watch so I was dependent on the music to help me with pacing and the strides. I ended up doing 3.7 miles in 40 minutes. I was kind of disappointed I thought I had gone a little faster than the day before, but I didn't.

I am going to go to the high school track to run my 10:15 mile. Tonight I am going on a "social run" with a group of friends and plan on doing an easy three miles.

I am trying to make sure my weight doesn't go up, so I am probably overcompensating with the exercise until I can get into a meal plan groove.
