My First Run 8/22/2006 October 22, 2006
Posted by vinnyt in : Exercise, fitness , trackbackMy First run. I took my first run today. The weather was some what cold slightly above freezing and overcast, but not raining. I set my workout goal to 1.5 miles in my iPod, and started out of the house. I got about halfway down the block, and pressed the center button on the iPod in hopes of hearing a status update. Instead I discovered that I had locked the iPod, and it was not tracking my information. I quickly unlocked it, and pressed the play button launching my workout. I then proceeded to run probably about 1/10th of a mile before I ran out of steam. I have to say I???m in pretty bad shape so I suspect that for the next few runs any progress is going to be slow. However, I???ve talked to several people regarding the subject of exercise and once I get over this initial hump I should progress pretty quickly. My goal by next summer is to be averaging about 7:00 minute miles if not less, and running about 5-10 miles on a daily basis. So we???ll have to see what happens.
