Hi Folks,
Despite telling myself I was going to get to 6km on a treadmill before I ran outside, I decided to go for a run this morning outside!
I know that from my house round a local park back to my house is 2.9m (4.6km) as I have measured it via GPS when walking one day. I thought that would be too much for me, so I drove to the park first so my run should have been about 1.9miles (3.05km).
I warmed up and stretched at home, I was wearing my NB trainers, I thought I would run on the grass verge to reduce the impact, and I took a nice slow steady pace... around 2km in I had to walk to catch my breath and ever since then I noticed a scratch inside-and-under my right knee... I started running again, but I ended up walking most of the rest of the way due to being overcautious about giving myself an injury!
Anyway - I definitely managed 1.3miles (2km)....
Lets see what the knee is like tomorrow.... I hope I haven't set myself back at all!
