John V Posted December 3, 2009 Author Share Posted December 3, 2009 sounds like your building the running back up. awesome!Yea, I took a month off of lifting to enjoy running again. I had limped for a year. My heart rate is making quick progress averaging about 1 run in 3 days. I'm training at 10 bpm lower HR than last year, running a bit slower but a bit longer.

John V Posted December 5, 2009 Author Share Posted December 5, 2009 You thinkin you might hit the streets jogging when the weather warms up?I doubt I could resist. I'm not looking to become some great distance runner or anything, but see working on my 5k speed for some time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John V Posted December 5, 2009 Author Share Posted December 5, 2009 Looking good Johnny!Thanks Bra. I just passed a year at the "new" gym. April will be 2 years since I'm born again athletic, so I'm kind of looking at that as some kind of goal, to be the best I can by then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
