transition

I am really shifting into training mode, as opposed to just working with Pose method drills. My run today was pretty satisfying, no shin pain, no plantar fascitis pain. My most recent technique revelation was working on relaxation. Also, I am starting to get more fine tuned feedback about my lower legs, are they tense are they pushing, etc. I can feel it now, whereas before I couldn't tell what was going on.

My initial training plan is pretty basic. I'll be doing easy runs 4 days/week, pose drills and short runs 2 days/week, and nothing 1 day/week. Not too strenuous, but I need to avoid injury. This week the easy runs are 30 min. x 3 days and 45 min. x 1 day. Pace has been around 8:30, not on purpose, that just happens to be what I'm running. It feels comfortable, though it's quite a bit faster than what I started out with last time I began training. I think that's due to both increased efficiency and better fitness, as I probably didn't lose everything from before. It's nice to really run again.
