Tackling another month
Thursday, 06 March 2008 - Written by jdhinman [profile]
been awhile since i blogged here. been able to keep myself motivated to pile up 40+ in Jan and Feb of 2008! A good start and an achievable goal with my schedule. it still requires me to push it now and then, either with a longer run or 4x/wk here and there. gotta say though, its pretty easy to train here in LA. no excuses during these "winter" months. the sun is almost always out and the temp is perfect for running. hoping to get my mileage total over 42 this month but dread an indolent knee injury. my left knee started tingling last week and i've been babying it a little with stretches, etc. have to keep a close eye on it. keep on lacing 'em up!

September is a new month!

After a grueling month with q5 call, not much sleep, and hardly any running, I'm back on the wagon with a good goal in mind: hit that 4x/wk and surpass my July mileage total (29.5). I figure if I can get up to 4x/wk on a non-call month, then I should manage to maintain 2-3x/wk on a call month. At least that's what I'm hoping because I've got three call months in a row coming up. I'm feeling pretty good and not limited by my legs these days, just my overall fitness. It'll come back. I've also added some strength training to my regimen with hopes to improve my core strength. 3.4 miles so far, 26.1 to go...

keeping up

Well, I'm into my third week of logging runs and fourth week of lacing up my shoes again. Starting to see some progress. I keep dropping 5 sec on my routine 3 miler. Pushed it to a little over 4 miles on Sunday. I'm getting there. I hope my new schedule at the hospital doesn't interfere with at least three times/week. That's the one hurdle I can't get over yet. Faster, longer, but can't seem to go from 3 to 4x/week. Laziness is a bastard devil. I will repent!

week 3

this is the third week of my running comeback.. struggled last week with both schedule and motivation resulting in a drop to only 6 miles (2 runs). I am determined this week to get up to the 4x/wk level.. then i can start working on speed and distance.

back on the road again
