Getting back on track!

Ran: 9 minutes
Ran Walked: 40 minutes.

Today, once again, I'm going to start training everyday.
I can tell I'm out of shape, maybe. The altitude is higher here and there are a lot more hills than in my old town. It's been raining so much I haven't had a chance to do much. But beginning today I will train 6 days a week.

Victoria Bryant

There's a 10K to take place at Victoria Bryant Park on November 29th of 2009. I'm training for it, although I may not register or run. I honestly don't think I'm ready for that distance, but it'll be fun training for the race. It's 52 days till the race date. Yesterday I crossed paths with an individual that is planning to run the race. I'm searching for a running club nearby, but haven't located one yet; I should have asked her.

Training goals for the race:
Each day, weather permitting I will take my dog to the park and the two of us will walk run the trails.
We ran walked for two hours yesterday. Today it was 1 hours.

There are some really steep hills to climb. The park is beautiful and has a feeling of securiy about it.

It was cool but sunny yesterday. Today it was misty. I'm not having any trouble with shortness of breath or aches or pains. I'm not pushing myself yet. Just letting the dog get used to running with me and the two of us getting to know the trails.

Move to Royston

I now live in a very small town that has a very nice park Victoria Bryant. I can run on the sidewalks or go to the park.

Since the Labor Day race I've been taking it easy. This weekend I began training again in earnest.

I like this little town and I'm going to love living here.
