Uno de los objetivos que mi esposa y yo tenemos es alcanzar los 21 km este año, hoy quería correr 15 km pero no pude mas, llegue a mi limite se podría decir, y quede un poco agotado y sediento. Es increíble pero hoy me tome ½ litro mientras trotaba, realmente lo necesite, y me sorprendio haber tomado tanto, primera vez.
Sumado a eso tambien me duelen las pantorrillas, tenia mucho tiempo que no me dolían en los entrenamientos, ni siquiera en la ruta de subidas que suelo hacer entre semana. No se a que se deba porque mi calentamiento estuvo bien, me dedique bastante antes de salir a trotar.
Durante el trote me sentí bastante bien, tuve un ritmo de 6:37 min/km, todavía no puedo estar en 5 minutos cuando mi distancia es mayor de 10 kilometros, cual será mi verdadero tiempo jaja. Definitivamente admiro a quienes pueden alcanzar grandes distancias o ir avanzando manteniendo su ritmo habitual, yo todavia no puedo.
Hoy vi mucha gente trotando, incluso jóvenes, se que en Barquisimeto hay gente que entrena pero rara vez los veo y siempre hago esta ruta, de hecho en la pista de atletismo tambien habían bastantes personas trotando, muchas jovencitas y algunas parejas, tambien hubo una chica que me paso varias veces, claro, ya yo tenia 7 km encima mientras ella estaba comenzando, pero, fue agradable ver mas corredores.
El clima ayudo, aunque todavía había algo de sol cuando comenzamos no estaba fuerte. Eso es lo bueno de estas temporadas que se acercan las lluvias, el clima cambia y es un poco mas facil trotar.
La semana entrante quizas corramos mas temprano, mi esposa quiere que entrenemos en la mañana, lo pensare, pero no me gusta mucho la idea, sin embargo, lo considerare porque nos agarra la noche trotando y se vuelve peligroso no solo por los carros que andan a toda mecha sino por las caídas.
Hoy aprendi que sumar distancias no es tan sencillo, pero paulatinamente se puede alcanzar, la meta son 21 km como dije al principio pero la próxima parada será a los 15 km.

Closer and closer to 15 km in HiveRun
One of the goals that my wife and I have is to reach 21 km this year, today I wanted to run 15 km but I couldn't do it anymore, I reached my limit you could say, and I was a little exhausted and thirsty. It's unbelievable but today I drank ½ liter while jogging, I really needed it, and I was surprised to have drunk so much, first time.
In addition to that my calves also hurt, it had been a long time since they hurt in training, not even in the route of climbs that I usually do during the week. I don't know why because my warm up was good, I spent a lot of time before jogging.
During the jog I felt pretty good, I had a pace of 6:37 min/km, I still can't be in 5 minutes when my distance is longer than 10km, what will be my real time haha. I definitely admire those who can reach long distances or keep going while keeping their usual pace, I still can't. I can't yet.
Today I saw many people jogging, even young people, I know that in Barquisimeto there are people who train but I rarely see them and I always do this route, in fact in the athletics track there were also quite a few people jogging, many young girls and some couples, there was also a girl who passed me several times, of course, I already had 7 km over while she was starting, but, it was nice to see more runners.
The weather helped, although there was still some sun when we started it was not strong. That's the good thing about the rainy season, the weather changes and it's a little easier to run.
Next week maybe we will run earlier, my wife wants us to train in the morning, I will think about it, but I don't like the idea, however, I will consider it because we get caught at night jogging and it becomes dangerous not only because of the cars that go at full speed but also because of the falls.
Today I learned that adding distances is not so easy, but gradually it can be achieved, the goal is 21 km as I said at the beginning but the next stop will be at 15 km.
