Well the family run turned out to be different. The master
taught us various exercises which will help us to run better. At the maximum I
would have run for 3 Km with Aswin but it was really a very good experience. I
felt more comfortably when running with Aswin. I think group running certainly
has its advantages. If this is the case then I guess during the race day it
will be really good for me.
The master taught us various exercises which was bit tough
too. I did not feel much pain during the exercises but I felt it later in the
evening. I did lot of push-ups today which caused pain in my hand muscles. I
think if I start continuing these exercises every day I might feel even more
fit than usual. I really hope this pain in hands does not cause any performance
issues during my running sessions.
I have now completed 6 weeks of training. This last one week
has not been a good one as lot of running sessions were missed due to several
reasons. I would like to do a good job from next week without skipping or
postponing my running sessions.
One good thing about today’s conversation with the master is
that he said my endurance level is very good and that he pointed out few flaws
in my running. He said I have to keep my shoulders loose and breathe out using
mouth in that way I can get more out of my running.
I would like to carry forward all the learning
and do a better job from next week.
