Getting pretty excited (and nervous) about my first 5k in a few days! I took it easy yesterday as I had perhaps pulled something last Thursday when I was doing some strength training. Fri-Sun my lower right back was a bit sore, namely when I ran Friday. So I got my back adjusted yesterday, Monday, and went for just shy of a 2.5 mile run. Felt much better!! While my pace was slower because I wanted to take it easy, and despite the fact that I stopped 3x (phone call, 20 second rest, car at crosswalk) I did 2.4 miles in under 27 minutes. So I'm hoping with the adrenaline, and healthy back come Sunday, I'll finish in under 35 minutes. That's my goal. I know I can run a half a mile in 5 minutes so here's hoping!
Tomorrow I meet with my trainer and I already forewarned him that I don't want to do leg stuff with him in fear of being sore for 2-3 days (which usually happens!). Gotta get a good run in on Thursday! Then Fri-Sat I'm resting other than walking the dog. I will probably run after my trainer session tomorrow though.
