Shoreline Park, Mountain view, 4 miles, 49 minutes. May 22, 2010.
This was the same place as we ran our first run ever this year. Sometime in April I guess, S and me ran a 5k run to raise funds for ASHA. I rem we took some 42- 45 minutes to complete that.
Today we can run 1 mile more in 5 minutes more!!
I am amazed at how your body can deceive you. The same body told me less than 4 months ago that I cannot run! I am able to run one more mile today with a couple pounds more on me. I fail to understand what a "group" can do to you. Thats the only difference I can think of.
The run itself was better on the heel than the last weekday run. I changed the shoe yet again on Friday night. This time with a lower heel cup. It happened to be a nike. It just fits better and easier on my feet not constraining any part of my feet. Ofcourse there was still some pain around the inner heel on my left foot. But it was much better.
It was very windy and cloudy. Starting was very hard and moreover we were running with our fuel belts for the first time - added weight. But soon got used to it. Ran alongside S and BP for quite a while.
Coach Char talked to me about the heel pain and said that it could be stiff calf muscles and asked me to massage it, stretch well and use a foam roller on it.
Madras cafe for brunch - had the 14 mini idlis. :)
