Time: 6 am
Distance: 4.8 Km
Duration: 36 min 27 sec
Place: Electronic City, Bangalore
I started to run in an increased pace than the usual. I felt
very comfortable for around 500 meters after which due to exhaustion I started
to jog in normal pace. I did not walk though. I alternated between normal and
pace jog continuously for around 2.2 Km. Later on it’s a mix of pace jog and
walking.
I completed the 4.8 Km course in 36 min and 27 sec which is
a minute’s improvement compared to the time which I set on last Friday’s long
run. I was too much optimistic about finishing it in 30 min but that proved to be wrong. I know that my lap time will reduce slowly and steadily. I am glad that
I made some improvement today. I really hope tomorrow’s run will improve even
further.
I did not feel any pain after performing stretching
exercises. My legs are now very much used to running. I have to somehow tackle
the frequent exhaustion due to which my lap time gets reduced considerably.
Akshaya has planned to teach me Pranayama which is considered as the ultimate
breathing yoga. Next week I shall learn from her.
I still feel the slight pain near toe in left leg. I wish it
soon gets healed in a week or so.
