Distance: 4.5 Km
Duration: 48 min
Place: Electronic City, Bangalore
I could not do walking in the morning as it was raining.
Instead I did it in the evening at around 5 pm. Before setting out for walk I
had an apple and also did the warm-up exercise as usual. I walked with fast
pace for 48 minutes. I did not feel much pain during the walk and there was neither
exhaustion nor thirst. It was a smooth walk. I just had some pain in the
calf-muscle but it too vanished after doing the warm-down exercises.
The whole day I have bit of pain in my left-foot near the
toe. I guess it is due to some extra stress in that particular area. Hopefully
it should get alright in couple of days.
Tomorrow is a rest day and hence I am eagerly waiting for
Tuesday to come to do a 4.8 Km run. I have planned to increase my pace if
possible. I am not going to force for the pace as I think stamina will build
slowly but not overnight. I can already see increase in my stamina these days.
I am very much interested in participating in the Kaveri
Trail Marathon and finishing the Half Marathon in a decent time. Let me see how
I fare up for the next couple of weeks and I shall decide about participating.
I am getting hunger very often these days. I am consuming
more fruits, protein rich and carbohydrate rich diet.
Alas!! One week of marathon training has successfully
completed. I am happy that I could make it. I pray to God to help me in
achieving my “Dream Run”.
Good night.
