This was my second day running 3K in my backyard loop and it was done on the later part of yesterday afternoon. As usual, I was running with my heavyweight selvedge denim and now with my old and dependable Converse Chuck Taylor in black.

It was a slow start and I was able to maintain my pace. Actually, it was not a perfect running workout but it was some sort of jogging but I was able to maintain it without stopping. It is understable that the weight of my jeans could reach more than 4 pounds which is almost 2 kilograms. The reason why I am using this jeans is because I am joining a denim fade competition for one year and I selected the heaviest denim jeans as my competition pair.

Despite some difficulty in running, I was able to make my run faster this time as compared to my result yesterday. I finished the run in 31:03 minutes and I was able to improve my time by 3:40 minutes from yesterday’s run. My average pace was 10:19 minutes. I was slow as compared when I was younger 3-4 years ago but I was happy just to be able to run or jog continuously.

I am getting all my running/workout data from the COROS Watch that I always wear whenever I hike or run and I am impressed on the data that are being recorded as a result of my running workout. The data recorded is immediately synchronized to my cell phone using the COROS Watch Apps.

By the way, one loop in my backyard trail loop can cover a distance of 1 kilometer, which is a figure 8 loop. I can make some variations in running my backyard trail of either following the 8-loop or simply the usual figure 0 loop. And maybe, because of the nature of my running surface and presence of lots of corners/90-degree curves, I could not run/jog faster as I wanted. Maybe, in due time, I will be able to get out of my backyard and run along the road surrounding my place. We will see!

So far, so good.
