Because I'm going kayaking tomorrow, I did my 9 miler this morning, in BELHAVEN. The weather was great which, for me, makes all the difference. I had a good time last Saturday, finishing in about 1:54, but did walk a good bit of it. Today, I ran the entire thing except for maybe a tenth of a mile, and finished in 1:52. It's not a huge improvement, but I feel great and ran WAY more than last week. I'm pumped about this running thing -- I start to really get motivated once I finally get to the point where I can go longer distances and can keep my heart rate at a reasonable number. I did both today, and the best sign of being in better shape (to me) is that while the heart rate increases going up the hills, it came back down on the other side. That is a great sign, and motivates me even more.
I'm pumped about kayaking tomorrow, guilt free. I also love running in the mornings. The rest of the day is GRAVY!!!
Good luck to all tomorrow -- I think you'll find that this weather is going to help you alot!! Enjoy it while you can -- have a beautiful day!
