New objective : Almería half marathon

[Antonio247]

18th November 2008

After having failed in my objective to run Valencia half maratón last Sunday, my new goal is to be able to finish Almería half marathon on 1st February 2009.

This evening I felt like going for a run, so I left from carretera de Sierra Alhamilla, just in front of my flat, at 7 pm. It was a nice mild day. I went as far as the estadio Mediterráneo following the same course as the half marathon in the first 2.7 km but in the other direction. So, I went up instead of downhill as far as the start line at the stadium. Then, I went on by the road and got to the car park. Then, I went down near a park and got to a new avenue. After that, I reached the Avda del Mediterráneo bridge and took carretera de Sierra Alhamilla again getting to my start line in 49 minutes. I crossed Avda Cabo de Gata and went to the splanade where I jogged a little more. In all, 53 minutes, around 7 km. I did some stretching and walked home. I felt quite well. Actually, my left knee didn´t hurt.
