NOTES:
Took too many days off running. Last time i ran, according to this blog, is my birthday (7/12/2007). Why? you may ask. Well, i could say: "an injury", "lack is time", but the truth is i didn't make the time. I did ok, 3.5 miles with only a 100m jog at 2mi. I felt, good. No shin splints, no knee pain and no cramps. I hadn't eaten much before. Drank a whole lot before, during and after. I have to get back into it. I plan to run 5miles in approx. 50 to 60 minutes. That would mean an average of 10min/mile. try to run 20miles this week.

Stretching: 30 min.

15/100 mi

NOTES: Decided to warm up with a one mile sprint. Ran a mile in a little over 6 minutes. If i could maintain that for 13.1 miles, it would be a 01:20:50 half marathon finish time. Almost twice faster then my target of 02:00:00 to 02:30:00 finish time. It was a good effort, hard to maintain without taking a 200m walk break. I need to work on my lower leg strength. My shins burn after a half mile at that speed.
