As stated in past blog posts, I have been having troubles with running, lately. I keep injuring myself, and it is hard to pick yourself back up after that.
I went for an 18.75km run, in training for my half marathon on May 6th, but I didn't wear my running watch (so I didn't know my pace). I did record my run on a running app on my phone, but I don't look at my phone while I run. So I just ran. I did run fairly slower than usual, but I ran 18.75 km, so I am happy. It was a good run.
I have also been getting used to a new pair of running shoes. They are the best "Feeling" running shoes yet, but I find them hard to run in still. Still getting used to them. Here is what they look like:
I think once my half-marathon is over, I will be more relaxed about running. It psyches me out. Once it is over, I think that I will be back to normal, just running for fun.
But 11 days until my run! It is scary! I originally signed up for it because I wanted to improve on my time from my half marathon in September, but I am not sure if that is going to happen now, since I don't have much time left to train, and I just got off of running rest. I will still try. But it may not happen. If it doesn't happen--- don't get me wrong, I will be really sad, but I won't quit. I can always try again. I probably won't try again any month soon, but eventually.
I originally wanted to sign up for the FULL marathon in may! But I had to be 18. I am so glad I didn't sign up for it. If I did, I probably would've finished, but with a horrifying time. So glad I'm only running the half, now!
I'm happy.
