Half-Marathon Training Day 01 (H-M TD 01)

Sunday

Half-Marathon Training officially started on Sunday. I was supposed to stretch and strengthen. I did not. I went to M's house this weekend then to my house and then drove back here. It was a long weekend BUT

Saturday:
M took me running on a trail that is a 5K. We ran together for a bit, but my stride is super short and my pace is super slow. After awhile he went on ahead of me. I also seriously wanted to die b/c this trail was not flat and I have not run any big hills like at all. I had to walk a lot of it, but I ended up finishing in around 30 minutes.

Important lesson learned: Never be lazy again. I did nothing the entire week before. It was bad.

So back to the training schedule... 3 mile run tonight and I'm gonna do it. :)
