Week Wrapup

Total Distance: unk
Total Time: 40 minutes

Comments: It was a bit sunny today so I decided to take a bit of a walk. I'm still kinda sore but I figured a bit of meandering about the city might help a bit. And it would be a chance to use the new camera as well.So I got down to the beachfront here in Miraflores and there is a race going on. Now that's just cruel, people. Seeing the folks make their way on by, I wanted to hop in and do my thing. At the very least I got that urge to go look up the next race I could find and enter it. But, fact is, I'm still quite a long way from entering any event whatsoever. What I need to be doing is getting my training legs back underneath me.So then I get back home and am bebopping around on the internet and, happen to find

Fitness Run

Time: 20 min
Distance: unk
Pace: unk

Comments: Twas a bit sore yesterday and into the morn. To be expected since it is beyond obvious that I have completely and totally de-trained. So, given that, the run went pretty well. I made it a point to extend my warm-up walk past the main traffic points this time tho. Unless it's an early a.m. effort, it's not worth fighting the combis and taxis.I'm not going for distance but seem to have a problem slowing down to an easy run. Particularly with the music. I just want to crank things up to my old pace. Gonna have to put the kibosh on that and focus on technique for now.Doing my reading on coming back from injury it looks like I'll need a good six weeks of this low-level running. Dunno if I ,can handle that. We shall see

Fitness Run

Time: 20 min
Distance: unk
Pace: unk

Comments: As good a start as I could hope. Which isn't saying too much. Started off with excitement, led quickly to sober reality and mostly consisted of hanging in there to finish.I did the usual run up the malencon. Not too many tourists and nonsense so it was not too bad. Getting over there was a pain. Forgot how horrid traffic in Lima is. But got through it. Felt good for making the effort. We'll see what happens next.
