Since my commitment to run my first half-marathon, I am really motivated to achieve this first time race. I’ll will publish here some post about my training advancement. It will serve as a “journal de bord” …
I started to train my legs and my cardio. Last year, I got injured before the Montreal marathon, it won’t happen again this year. For my legs, I decided to take the stairs instead of the elevator. So, every lunch time, I walk down 20 levels and 20 levels to come back. There is around 30 stairs per level, so it’s 1200 (30 x 20 x 2) stairs every week day. For my cardio, I started some spinning at home. I got a bike roller from a friend so I could use my new DeVinci Silverstone SL3. I do it while watching the Montreal Canadiens games. The team is playing so badly that my frustration helps me to keep a good rythm. Thanks guys …
Both of those training where tough at beginning. But now, I feel that I can start running. Still, I will start slowly. So the first runs will be 3.2 km, at least for the first week. I’m so glad to re-start running.
