After my demoralizing time on my last 5k, My wife gave me a genius idea: train by running a 5k. Haha, so I took her awesome advice and tried to do it this morning. I have the mileage worked out at 1.6 miles out and back and started with Clover. I felt great up until the mile mark but after that my tired calves really began to act up. I jogged (could hardly call it running) and walked the rest of the way and took a few trails on the way back.
This felt great even though I was tired and it seems like the right thing to do. I can’t believe I had not thought of doing it before I guess I am just lazy.
