My left hamstring is feeling better, so I have started running again. The weather has been quite chilly here, so I wore two layers on top and a beany when I went for my last run. It was a 5km run around the Kai Tak Development area. My legs felt fine, but the constraint is still my breathing. I'm still not very fit. I realise this will be a long process to get back to my level of fitness from years before.
One of my main goals this year is to run a half-marathon in a decent time. I say a decent time is something under 1 hour and 45 minutes. To be serious about this, I really need to make the sort of running schedules I used to do. I should make a spreadsheet of targets per week, which steadily increase to something significant. These days, I don't expect I can run 6 days per week like I used to. Or, at least, I won't be able to run 6 days per week immediately.
When I am working from home, it should actually be easier to find time to go for a run. I have the flexibility to start work earlier and finish later, and go for a run in the middle of the day. Or I could finish earlier and go for a run after work.
