John’s First Run

John asked to go on a long run with me today and so we set off after some instruction. The hardest thing for him to do was to hold back. The concept of running at less than full speed in order to run more distance left him befuddled.

Here’s a chart showing time, distance, breaks and the course of his first mile run. You’re on your way John. Just remember that all runs, no matter the distance begin with the first step!
