Against my better judgement

05Dec06

I have recently purchased a Garmin 305 GPS/heart rate monitor and can’t wait to use it. So today I will give it a whirl. I know I should wait a few more days before getting back into trianing, but I am getting claustrophobic. This will be an easy run. If I have any pain, good or bad I will wait a few more days.

On related note I am toying with the idea of doing some trial running to reduce the pounding my legs take on the pavement. There are a few trail runs coming up later this winter that look to be a lot of fun. They are long events, but you are not running the entire time. If I can do some long runs on trial as opposed to pavement, I might be able to avoid further damage and be able to make it to the CMM (Country Music Marathon) in April.
