Iron Martini: Melanie: Saturday

Sunday, November 2, 2008

Set out to run three miles - Ran about a mile and a half, walked for a while and then ran about 3/4 of a mile home.

Sam Crish said...: since your thanksgiving goal is based on one mile would it make sense to run shorter distances? Like one mile, 400s, etc.; November 2, 2008 at 1:14 PM
Melanie said...: yes - i just wanted to go for a nice run since it was the first run back since my stupid hip started working again. And the three mile had been a 'nice run' a few weeks ago.; November 3, 2008 at 12:03 PM
