Yesterday I was bit by the garden bug. I spent 3 hours hunched over in the garden with my two favorite girls. One a help, the other a hindrance ;) It's good to do stuff together, even if you aren't a fan of it. I can appreciate gardens but cutting the grass is the only thing I'm into. Still, doing things together can make you "grow" excuse the pun...
Why am I going on about the gardening? Well, I should have ran before I started gardening because my back was not in the mood for a run afterwards. Needless to say I pushed it back till today.
Today was a brutal day at work to add to my back woes but I was pretty excited to go for a run as I was going to try a PB 5k and see what I could do...
I haven't done any speed work so Triguy's advice of takeing it easy was in the back of my head...
I warmed up with a easy 1.5 k and then gave er (well what I call goin all out) and I was pleasantly surprised at coming in just over 23 minutes. I was pretty pleased as my legs weren't too wobbly for my first real speed run...
I followed with stretching and sharing ice cream floats with my girls!
Pretty good day I must say...
Be Safe, Reddog
