Week 3, Run 2

Week 3, Run 2
Distance: 3.2 miles
Speed: 6.3 for first 10 minutes, up to 6.4 for the next 5 minutes, 6.5 for the next five minutes, then up to 6.6 for 3 minutes, and 7.0 for last 2 minutes.
Time: 30:10
Pain: overall feeling good. A few twinges in my hip, but nothing that I was concerned about. did apply some icy hot just to be safe
Notes: Thank god this run went well, after Monday I needed that. I tried to start cautiously and then slowly ramped it up. I was definitely struggling towards the end, but not because of any pain, I'm just still building my cardio. I'm going to keep stretching my hip throughout the rest of the day as a precaution. Hopefully my hip episode was a one time occurrence. No more racing with other treadmill patrons. Also, Eminem was my hero today, Lose Yourself came on my shuffle at the perfect time. Gave me the strength and illusion of being a badass I needed to push through the tough part of my run!
