Together we Climb
Much, much better this week!
Considerably cooler and much better equipped, today's run was a lot better. I went out and bought some new workout clothes - Nike Pro SomethingorWhatevers. Pretty good stuff, actually, all balanced and ventilated. I needed something new anyway, since I'd been using the same few shirts, frequently washed, for quite some time now. This new stuff keeps you cool, "wicks" away sweat, balances your blood sugar, pays your bills, and helps you run faster and jump higher. Definitely those first two, and maybe the last one.
I was able to make it all the way to the end of the run, cool down for a few minutes, and then run about 3/4 of the way back. That's better than my usual, so I must be making some progress - I can't chalk it ALL up to the clothes.
I do wonder how much better I can get. Any real distance has always been incredibly difficult, so the prospect of improving that weakness is definitely welcome.
