The plan was to run 3.6 miles on my new there-and-back route. 1.8 mils each way.
My goal was simple: stay running, no matter how slow, the entire way. Hard?
Apparently. I made 1.25 miles. Walked. Jogged another 1.25 miles. And walked home. My pace was unexpectedly
Hills. Hills. Hills. Hills. Hills. Hills.
Hills.
This route has a name. Ridge Road Route. It has beaten me twice and things don't look good the next time.
It is mostly uphill on the way out in a set of rising tiers. It is short but it does not forgive. I'm not in shape to flatten it.
My scale believes I lost 2.2 pounds over what was about 55 minutes walk/jogging. Since my goal is to lose 15 lbs, I think at this rate, I'll be done in two weeks. If only.
