Hello everyone, how are you? I hope you are all right. I want to tell you about my running training for my first race. I train on November 11, 2024, in Ragunan. Meanwhile, my first race will be on November 17, 2024. Why did I choose Ragunan?
Ragunan is a zoo in Jakarta, which is a huge area. I see on social media that many people are starting to exercise there. So, I try to follow that. There is a plus point to this, I can see several animals here. After exercising I could see several animals here.
How about the track here? Honestly, the track here is quite tired. This place, there have been lots of people since morning. The atmosphere is here for the holidays. I need to be smart in choosing the running area. Another thing, I tried sprinting at high speed. Then in the next kilometer, I tried to go lower.
What about my breathing condition? Honestly, I'm out of breath. I was once advised to run at a pace of 8-9 for beginners. Why do I start with a sprint first? Initially, I would run regularly using various methods. I do this so I can catch a deep breath.
However, it turns out that this method is not suitable for beginners. Running slowly and relaxed is the key. I applied on my first pace. What are the results of my first pace? I'll tell you tomorrow. But, running is a fun sport for me now.
After experiencing running out of breath, I determined not to run too hard. This was an important lesson for me. The total pace I use is still at 8 Pace. I need to pay attention to details like this on future runs. That's all I can tell you. See you in the next story.
