Feels Good!


Well, the workout wasn't pretty but the 200 meters jogging at Fort Point was good.

 

The walk today was actually a recovery from the quicker two mile yesterday in Golden Gate Park.

 

Because of a doctor's appointment, which this runner totally forgot, the run at Ocean Beach was changed.

 


After completing the walk from the apartment to Fort Point and around the area, it was decided to jog around the oval overlooking the Marina.  It was un-timed but knowing the distance, slight uphill and downhill, it felt good though it was about 200 meters.  Definitely the left leg and knee feels stronger than it did one week ago.  Doing some stretching, stair climbing around the apartment and hills have helped.

 

The goal for two weeks from Sunday is actually jog the Mountain Lake Park 5K instead of doing a self time.  Being with other participants is better than doing it alone.  The DSE cutoff is 15 minutes per mile or 46:36 per calculation.

 

With the upcoming race in the Philippines, the race organizers have an hour cutoff.  Right now, just walking, this blogger is around 18:10 per mile pace or 56:27 per 5K.

 

Tomorrow, a 5K on the track at Kezar Stadium and on Sunday, will walk the Mountain Lake 5K for the very first time.  I've run it several times and know the course well.
