I did the 1.5 miles again in the late afternoon and did the 8 segments of jogging with the rest being walking. I think I felt a little stronger tonight compared to last week. I've been picking up litter during my walks, and the path is looking pretty clean. The temperature during my walk/jog was in the high 30s (F).
I checked my cadence while jogging, and it was 174. That is a good sign. My normal cadence for my running is 180-185, so I'm close to the same speed of moving my legs. The difference, of course, is that I'm taking very small steps compared to my normal steps while running. As I get stronger I will automatically take longer steps as I run faster (my jogging right now isn't much faster than my walking).
Hi Ruth,
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by and saying hello! I'm glad you're finding the blog interesting.
You're progressing well! Time on your feet is more important than the speed therefore I wouldn't be too concerned about jogging not much faster than walking...of course you already know that!!! Due to your blog, I counted my cadence during yesterday's General Aerobic Run, and it was 179.
