Getting started on week 2.



Completed my first scheduled run for this week with ease. 52 minutes running in total, again at a slow pace / heart rate. Nice running weather albeit a bit colder (10 C) so I did get tricked into putting my thin rainrepellant windbreaker on, which quickly proved too hot. So I guess its true what they say about going out for a run when the weather is getting colder, which is to wear less than you'd think. I'm wearing shorts and a longsleeve technical shirt with a cotton t-shirt under it. More than fine.

All in all pretty sore upperleg muscles, I guess the tennis matches on Monday night might be a little demanding. Might consider throwing the schedule around for now, but we'll see. Starting to stretch more during and after the runs which help. Moreover, the legs need to start getting used to running more so should be easier as we go.

Good to have completed the first week! Getting started is usually the biggest hurdle to take!

Oh, and I have stiff competition!! Just heard that my good friend Keti is also running next years NYC Marathon, fun! :)
