I have been speaking briefly about my journeys to the gym recently.
I used to run very regular, in facr almost every day I would get my gear on and coem rain or shine go and pound the streets for a good 40 minutes at least.
I have not been like that for a while. Firstly I have been traveling a lot last year and secondly Montreal winter is not the time to go running. The cold air would burn your lungs and I don't have the money to buy expensive running gear.
In the summer, whilst in Vermont, I did go to the gym on an almost regular basis and I felt my running legs coming back to me. Then I went on holiday for a few weeks, moved to Montreal and it went again.
Well yesterday I managed to get back to my respectable running time of the summer. I ran for 3 miles and it took 20:20 minutes, dead on!
I am aiming specifically to reach a sub 20 minutes time and then I will probably add an extra mile. Hopefully I will start with 28 minutes for 4 miles and see where I can take it.
Hopefully then I will look and see if there are any 5k road races coming up. I would really ike to get back to 10k running and maybe even back to half marathon, eventually.
