Week Runs in Review

I decided that I am going to blog at the end of the week each week to chronicle how my training for the Denver Marathon is going. I already completed a three mile run on Thursday 05/28/09. I was not real happy with the run since my right shin was giving me trouble. You can read more on the previous blog entry.

Today, I completed a six mile run in one hour and about twenty-one minutes. I started out on my normal route down Prince to the Platte River trail. On Saturdays and Sundays the trail is busy. I thought that it would be light traffic because I started the run at about a quarter to ten a.m. The trail was packed. I was glad that I only ran the trail south to where the Lee Gluch trail meets the Platte River trail.

I took the Lee Gluch trail east for the majority of the run. It is such a beuatiful trail. I was happy to have most of the trail to myself. I did have some trouble with my shoes being to tight but I got through it. I completed the run with only a few walk breaks. I figure at this point it is okay to walk a few minutes when you are just getting into shape again.

If you want to see the route I took you can view it below it is the red route. Thanks for reading my Blog please contribute to my Second Wind Fund raising located to the right of this entry.
