I ran 3.6 miles this morning in exactly 10.00 min/mile and that included a 30 seconds wait to cross the Eastern Road, so I am happy. There were a few hard sections, mainly running over bridges, but I have found that if I run too fast, or run up a bridge, all I need to do is to slow down a little bit, catch my breath and I can carry on again wthout stopping. I'm sure this is becuase my fittness levels are getting better. Not so long ago I had to stop for a short walk to catch my breath, and that was only running 2.1 miles!
My calf muscles are aching after the run. I stretch them before and after running, but for some reason these muscles seem to take the most punishement. I'll have to check out if there is anythign I can do to help.
