As reported in my last blog entry, I had a very encouraging recovery run on Thursday. My knee injuries appear to have healed, and my legs seem ready for action. I have swung from utter pessimism to guarded optimism – I think I can get into the groove of a running program.
With that in mind, I went shopping on the Nike+ website to see if it could help me design a running program. I had looked before I had the encouraging recovery run, so I knew there was probably something that could help.
After looking around a bit, I settled on the 5k program. It seemed to match up well with my current ability, and where I think I can be when it ends in 3 months. Each program has a number of varients, this one had 4 and I chose the easiest (beginner). At the peak on November 11th, it has me running 7 miles.
The first run is scheduled for today. The distance? Just 2 miles. Woohoo, here we go!
