Yay, another run has been completed. 6.77 km this time. Been using the run/walk scheme laid out in Walking Fit : 10mins/3mins run/walk, repeat three times. But this a.m. I tried the 5k loop (plus some) laid out by a fellow Saint Johner and ran into that age old problem in the Port City: hills. Lots of em, in the wrong places. So my pattern was more like 10/3 followed by 9/5 (that was a series of really steep hills I just wasn't going to run - did I mention that Saint John has the steepest main street in Canada? Just so's you know.) followed by an 8/2 and a break for errands. But I made up for some of it by running around the park by my house a few times just to meet my goal time of 40 minutes - which ended up being 45 and the illustrious 6.77 km. So 7km must be around the corner... Yeah, I know, I'll get my come-uppance soon. I was dragging butt when I got started this morning (should have eaten honey with my yoghurt, it helps) and now my legs are feeling it (despite the stretching exercises and 1/2 hour of yoga I did afterwards). Meditation group tonight should be interesting - sitting on the floor for an hour. Hopefully I"ll be able to walk home...
