Dia Viernes. hoy sali con mi esposo a entrenar. Debido a que el ha estado un poco ausente de los entrenamientos, y yo tenia una molestia en la cadera, para este dia escogimos una ruta casi plana con poco desnivel, y con un perímetro bien cerrado, sin alejarnos mucho de nuestro punto de origen. Salimos temprano a entrenar, se noto que la noche estuvo lloviendo, yo ni senti, y esto es bueno porque quiere decir que descanse. El cielo estaba nublado cuando salimos. Iniciamos el entrenamiento con un calentamientos de unos 5 minutos, deberia ser mas el tiempo de calentamiento, pero como hoy ibamos a ritmo super suave podiamos reducir un poco el tiempo de calentamiento.
Me encanto la ruta que escogimos para hoy, me parecio bien segura, ya esta en mi lista para cuando me toque entrenar sola, recorrimos varias avenidas de la ciudad, me encanta porque son amplias y estan en buen estado. Llegamos hasta una plazita icono en mi ciudad. Por el camino encontramos a un señor corredor, le admiro su cadencia, se nota que va super disfrutando trotar, no se le nota ningun esfuerzo, hasta nos paso jejeje. Gracias a Dios llevaba la mejor hidratación del mundo agua de coco. Ya cuando faltaba poco para llegar a los 8 kilometros ibamos cuadrando de tal forma que nos diera en casa los ultimo metros. Fue un entrenamiento en su mayor porcentaje en zona dos, bueno un entrenamiento ideal para formar una base estable en el running. Seguimos dando lo mejor en cada entrenamiento.
Friday. Today I went out with my husband to train. Since he’s been missing some workouts lately, and I’ve been having some hip discomfort, we chose a mostly flat route with minimal elevation gain and a well-defined loop, without straying too far from our starting point. We left early to train. You could tell it had rained overnight—I didn’t even feel it, which is good because it means I got some rest. The sky was cloudy when we set out. We started the workout with a 5-minute warm-up. We should have warmed up longer, but since we were going at a very easy pace today, we were able to cut the warm-up a little short.
I loved the route we chose for today; it seemed very safe to me, and it’s already on my list for when I train alone. We ran along several city avenues—I love them because they’re wide and in good condition. We made it to a little iconic square in my city. Along the way, we ran into a guy who was out running; I admire his stride—you can tell he’s really enjoying his jog; it doesn’t look like he’s exerting any effort at all—he even passed us, haha. Thank goodness I had the best hydration in the world: coconut water. When we were almost at the 8-kilometer mark, we adjusted our pace so that the last few meters would take us right home. It was a workout that was mostly in Zone 2—an ideal workout for building a solid running foundation. We’ll keep giving our best in every workout.
