I am slowly increasing my pace after this summer's bout with plantar fasciitis, but I honestly couldn't say if I'll ever be able to get back to the pace I was running at before (which was nothing spectacular, just spectacular to me!). I am just grateful to be able to run at all, and I try to keep that in mind when looking at watches and mileposts. Good luck, Shelley!Emmaclairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06075275421271190384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067665701316634699.post-33209546715885666102015-02-04T11:05:15.859-06:002015-02-04T11:05:15.859-06:00Oooh, way to change it up.

Now my goals is running 3.1 miles without breaks and after that work on getting a little faster. <br /><br />Just keep up the good work and listen to your body. If your legs start bothering again take a step back till it feels good again and move on. You've got all the time in the world for that. <br />Franhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10287705328335828286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067665701316634699.post-37133909293538370402015-02-04T07:23:10.109-06:002015-02-04T07:23:10.109-06:00You can do it and I guarantee your hamstring will ...You can do it and I guarantee your hamstring will feel better this year. I'm telling you it took a whole year before I didn't feel mine occasionally. Just remember, keep it slower to make it through miles. Once you've gotten to where you are running without walking, that's when you switch it up a bit and try to push yourself to be faster. I say you get your 12 minute mile back, no problem!Helenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12308631304554235792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067665701316634699.post-40792766279180491282015-02-04T06:56:52.657-06:002015-02-04T06:56:52.657-06:00Looks like you have a great base for improving you...Looks like you have a great base for improving your speed already in place.<br />Just be careful not to much, too soon, too fast don't want you to get hurt.<br />Enjoy your running!Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17309616784284197694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067665701316634699.post-42909643212210457442015-02-04T06:21:32.156-06:002015-02-04T06:21:32.156-06:00Don't say never.
