The only real way to describe today's run is "a little". Basically, I walked down to our neighborhood park, barefoot of course, did one lap around a baseball diamond and then walked home. Calf stretching before and after the run.
Distance running: 0.32 miles (ya gotta start somewhere)
Pace: 11:39 minute/mile (setting new land speed records)
Weight: 220 lbs (this is questionable since the scale we have has registered me between 210 and 220 over the last few days)
Results: no ruptured Achilles. No gaping wounds on the soles of my feet. The right lateral side of my low back is just the tiniest bit sore. Related to the running? I'm not sure and I wouldn't want to pass judgement. Calves a little sore? Yeah, a little.
What I learned: black asphalt is hot on a mid-80s day (pretty smart, huh?). There is no obvious reason not to try again.
Plan: do a little more than 2 laps around the baseball diamond on Monday, hopefully before work.
