I tried a new running course today, and while I did ok, I can see that it's not going to be as good as I thought.
I prefer to run on the dirt roads or trails, but as dirt roads and trails go, they are uneven, so footing becomes an issue. The last thing I want to do it twist and ankle or fall.
Running on the pavement just doesn't suit me. As I ran part of my new route on the paved road, I felt more "jarred" with each step. Also, my road is extremely narrow with just and inch or so on the out side of the "white line" - and for some reason no one cares that it is in fact a residential area, even if it is in the middle of nowhere, so no one pays attention to the 25 mph signs. There are enough blind spots that if a large speeding truck were to come up, well, let's just say that I'm pretty sure I wouldn't win that battle.
I'm also not sure of the distance. I'm using the new pedometer that my son gave me for Christmas. I am able to program in my step distance for walking, running or jogging, but because of the uneven surface, I doubt any measurement would have been very accurate.
In the end, I had run for about 30 minutes, not solid - I did slow down to a fast walk, or slower jog in some spots. The device told me I had run .96 of a mile. The change was good, I had to pay attention to my surroundings and footing. I believe I will try this a couple of times before searching out a new route.
I can definitely tell that all of this running is firming up my legs and butt! Yeah!
