Today was my first official day of training with running. I ran a three mile loop from my apartment to Lawrence Avenue on the lakefront path. It was relatively calm. I like running in the middle of the day, there are few people out. The only downfall is it is quite hot outside.
I stopped to stretch around Lawrence and this mini-street cleaner came through to clean the path and I got dusted out. My hips were sore, probably because of the 10 mile bike ride from yesterday.
When I came back, I did about 5 minutes of ab exercises to finish out the RadioLab Oops episode, which made me laugh out loud on the run (which I am sure earned me funny looks).
Not such a bad first day of running. Tomorrow is 2.5 miles, and I wouldn't mind trying to pick up the pace. I am probably the slowest person out there right now.
