Today TBO and I started our 10K training. It was a gorgeous day about 50 degrees in the morning and not a cloud in the sky. We walked about 1/2 mile when we got to the flat part. The neighborhood is very hilly so finding flat ground was very important.
The actual running part went pretty well. We did a 1/1 since we are both starting over. We kept the pace slow and steady. It's what everybody needed and we were able to keep a conversation going the whole time. We ran a mile and the walked the rest of the way. In total we did 2.6 miles in about 49 minutes. You won't win with these times but it was a very respectful first showing.
After the run we did some Yoga and I showed TBO and the girls a few exercises that I learned from John the Trainer. TBO will need to workout some to remember how to use her core. That will help with the main goal which is learn to run again WITHOUT getting injured.
We are pretty well matched in the "I suck" category so this should be really good. It was good to be outside with my running buddy again.
Here is the run.

It's wonderful to be running with my buddy again! Don't worry John the Trainer. Slow and steady is what wins our race!
