Well I woke up feeling good, and again I'm given credit to my wife's regiment of vitamins and emergency powder drinks. So today's run is 3-4 miles at a casual pace. I'm so glad it was. I did a total of about 3.5 miles.
The first mile I felt great. Was running on the treadmill at a 6.5 speed which put me at 9:13 per mile. Then my leg shins started hurting so I slowed it down for the second mile to a 6 speed which put me at 9.31. I figured if I can keep this pace, then I should be able to increase it later and I didn't want to over due it. But then about half way through the third mile, but my calves crapped up. I tried to walk it off, but it made it worse. I had to stop the treadmill and stretch them out. I even drank some water. I need to research how much and how often I need to drink water during my runs.
Well once I felt better, I started the run again this time at a 5.5 speed, and I ran another mile. I was able to do the last mile in 9.44. So not too bad. I calling this a total of 3.5 miles
Hopefully I won't regret it in the morning.
