Today we ran 30 minutes (5km) and I was able to really see my progress. We have this hill at the end that stretches for 1km and today I was able to run up it at a good pace and sprint the last 200 meters! Usually the end is when I die and can barely jog…anyway, it was fun to see that I am getting better at this. Thanks to my bud Kelly (Vause), my side stitch was under control and I think I finally know what I need to do to keep it away. It’s all about breathing with the diaphragm, not your chest. It takes a LOT more concentration and is kind of annoying, but the second I stopped focusing on it, it came back. So it’s good advice! Thanks Kellbell!
