Beginning 6 Week Program

I'm a new, unfit runner one year post broken ankle.

 

I started with the test on Thursday 3/31/11 and have been recovering since.

Today I did Workout #3

Endurance Threshold - Zone 2-3.

  • 10 min warm up
  • 10 min ms Fartlek according to heart rate
  • 6 min Cool Down

Equipment: Invisible Shoe Hurraches, Cheap, Sportline Armband to carry Phone (safety only, no listening)


Notes: I worked on form, thinking "UP, up, up, up, up", throughout warm up, main set and cool down.


The most amazing thing happened when I started running. The carriage dropped just a little and I was cruising peacefully like one of those electric cars on an amusement park ride for little kids. Quiet and easy. No jarring.

 

I even almost snuck up on a deer!

 

My pre warm up, warm up is: an Eric Franklin based Pilates foot wu found here.

 

I also use this foot training.

 

I am training to participate in the Born to Run Naked Tour in Hattiesburg, MS. No one ever comes here so it's very exciting!
