Thanks Andy, cool...
Now I have to beginning my own training diary
and there is only one way: I have to begin by the beginning, and in this case, this is not a topic phrase at all. Right now begins for me a double challenge: first, reporting my running, second and essential, running
I always try to act according to a useful philosophy of life. I believe that betting for high and difficult goals is important. Of course, I am conscious that usually I will never get all them, but the only fact of trying to get and approach them makes me improve more than I ever though
Sincerely, I thought that running was easier, so that jogging long distances could only be a mathematical (arithmetic) calculation, as simple as the multiplication of your running time during one minute by the time that you needs for a marathon.
What an ignorant I was
Now, I do not dare to define the difficult of running long distances as a geometrical sequence, worst and indeed, I will rather say that its difficulties increases in an exponential way
But according to Andy, Sweder, Antonio and everybody here, except SP, confidence and motivation can reduce all these difficulties in an easier and a funny experience. So, why not to try
?
Ok, I stop with this inexpensive philosophy, because it seems that I am talking about Nobel prices or Olympic Games trainings instead of my small and simple jogging
Anyway, before going to my experiences on running, I must thanks everybody (including SP) who, involuntary and with no aim has wake up this new interest in me. Thats must be the unattended consequences of this so friendly and interesting forum
.
OK, last Friday should start my art of running, as I had an appointment with a running monitor. I was really nervous and restless. I took my time for wearing me with semi-professional clothes
(I have bought them at Decathlon store sales) and I was pretty nice with new t-shirt and shorts. Only running shoes were old, because I am still waiting that SP sends to me my new Acsis Canayos (size 6) by post
Meeting point was reception.
Then, reception guy gave me sad news: jogging was cancelled due to the rain!!! Yes, yes I know
At that moment the image of Sweder with his two dogs in the snow came into my mind, but :o what can I do if we are so? The guy explained me that they fears that someone could get injured
He called the running monitor who was near and I took my opportunity for asking him some questions about groups level: Monitor is a muscled small guy in lycra. As I asked him about which could be the best level for me, he looked at me and, and immediately he told me that I was able of joining the advanced group
It was doubtless my professional clothes. He continued talking that he wanted to show us a couple of things like rhythms change, X,Y,Z
and a lot of more things.
As X, Y and Z I mind a lot of technical words that I do not remember at all and, of course I didnt understood at all
Due to my professional wearing it should be a shame to reckon that I didnt understood nothing at all, so that my only reaction consisted on giving an intelligent regard, nodding my head and smile, saying:
counts of me for next Friday boy!
Now, I need to train a lot before next Friday for not make ridiculous
That same Friday I have run my 4 Kms at the treadmill, Saturday too, but yesterday I was ill.
Today it will be impossible to run. Not only because I am ill, also because today is Fathers day in Spain. Therefore there is family meeting.
Every RC-father
, receive my sincere congratulations
