The Running Project 2

A couple of days ago I posted about getting older and running. 
Slower than 2 years ago, but running a longer distance.

I decided that I would work my way up to 8km (5 miles) at a slower pace than doing 4.8km (3 miles)

I mapped out a couple of 8km runs and today I did one of them. Not sure if I could do the whole 8km....

My leg muscles got tighter at the 6.5 km marker, but not too bad. I stayed under 7 minutes per kilometer.

The next 2 days will be interesting in terms of recovery. For now I am planning to do two  3 mile runs and one 5 mile run per week....
