Running Week 2

It's been exactly one week since my first day back running.  My shins were still sore up until yesterday from last time.  Hopefully my legs won't be as sore for as long this time.  I did another set of intervals today, alternating between walking and running again.

• 1/4 mile @ 3.7 mph
• 1/4 mile @ 7.5 mph
• 1/4 mile @ 3.7 mph
• 1/4 mile @ 7.5 mph
• 1/4 mile @ 4.0 mph
• 1/4 mile @ 7.7 mph
• 1/4 mile @ 4.0 mph
• 1/4 mile @ 7.7 mph
• 1/4 mile @ 4.0 mph
• 1/4 mile @ 8.0 mph
• 1/4 mile @ 3.7 mph

 This time I totaled 2-3/4 miles in 30 minutes.  That's 1/2 mile over last time plus I added a slight incline of 2% to the treadmill.  The knees feel pretty good.  Only a slight soreness in the left.  66 days left until the St Pats Dash.  From the heart rate monitor -
