sorry for the break. busy busy month with the new semester. and a rough, but good, end to my summer as well.
anyway, i've signed up for the xterra 10k trail run at kualoa. its this december. and, i can't wait.
today is the first of a new run layout i have setup for december. my long runs are going to have to be done on trails if i want to get used to the terrain. i did a nice 2 mi tempo run from the end of wilder st up through the UH manoa campus and back. 22 minutes. sheesh!
my left knee has begun to act up, and the pain i used to have in my right knee is no more. strange huh? i work my gray nikes today, and i specifically remember my right knee hurting when i ran with my black mizunos. hmmmmm.
alvie and i snagged a pair of frees (nike) and ive done some short runs with them. ill slowly ease into them, seeing as they have so far been helpful with my usual plantar fasciitis.
on another note, I'VE JOINED CROSSFIT. go on with what you will, naysayers. i can say that while i dont agree with all of crossfit's ideologies, i believe that plyometric, high-intensity exercise has its place in an all-around athletic training regimen. so, now you'll hear more of that as i head into my mandatory introductory sessions, known as the elements classes. eight sessions later, and i'll have their seal of approval and a pat on the back to join as a full-time member. well, time to go.
ive got some serious anatomy and phys to study for an exam this thurs. augh.
aloha, spens
1 mile warmup, 1 mile cooldown. 2 mile tempo @ 11:15 /mile pace.
