Chris' First Run

We just got back from our first run together. We ran at Mills. It's nice that Mills is so close because they have a "track" around their soccer field, and the Pine Top Trail (a 3 mile loop) around campus that has good hills, etc. We ran around the track today, and plan to do that for about a month together before we tackle Pine Top.

Our workout: one lap warm-up, then we stretched. Then we ran 4 laps (a mile) at about a 9 minute mile pace (maybe a bit slower). Then we walked a lap. Then we finished it up with running 2 more. Lastly, we stretched for about 5 minutes.

All in all I thought it was a great first workout. We ran 1 1/2 miles and walked 1/2 a mile. We plan on running again Tuesday after work!

Nice job guys. I look forward to running Pine Top with you.

I agree -- way to get it started, guys. And it is way better having a running partner than slogging it out solo. Also, way more fun and less boring to be outside than on a treadmill.
