Another 7x(1R/2W), pain-free run. An awesome thing was that my daughter joined me and had a great time. She's kind of getting interested in running for a few reasons. One, she was able to meet Jon's daughter, W, last week at the 20K and found out that she runs and is training for a half-marathon. S thinks that's cool. Also, S participated in a program put on by City of Houston through the HISA Physical Ed programs at the local schools called marathonkids. I'll report on this in anohter post but briefly, it's a program where kids run a marathon a little bit (.25 miles or a bit more) at a time until they've run an entire marathon. It was a cool celebration Saturday morning and I'm looking forward later today to reporting on it.
Also, I'm adding 600m (1.5 laps at the Rice U track) to my weekly mileage. I ran this yesterday with S at marathonkids. I wouldn't mention this little more than a quarter mile but it's significant in that it was a continuous run and the longest continuous run for me in a long, long time. Sad but true.
So the unimpressive but encouraging (for me) and pain-free stats are:
Distance: 1.3 miles
Run: 7x(1R/2W)
Temp: 75 deg
Weekly distance so far: 6.5 miles

Thanks great that you've gotten your daughter involved. My daughter ran a 1 mile with me in a 5k and I think that was it for her. I think too much to quick. Perhaps I should bring her along when I volunteer to do an aid station, so she could see there's more to this sport.
Yes, I have the luxury of not being fast at all and also not being able to run very far (yet). So, it's ideal time to run with other beginners.
WAY to go, Vic! keep it up!
sweet Vic!!! Tha's awesome that your taking your daughter along. Good dad-kid time and a workout in too! :)
I vaguely remember pain-free running.
Rock on Vic!
Keith.
Yay, Vic! Pain-free is always good. Your daughter is lucky to be able to run with her dad. :)
