Quick! Someone teach me how to run / walk!

Second run this week was yesterday. Same format: run through eucalyptus forest, climb afterwards and then go home.

I've found I can only run for 5 or 6 minutes and then I have to walk. It's pretty sad... but I know I can do better since I can run continuously on the treadmill for 25 minutes at a time. I suspect I'm just not pacing myself right. Climbing was fine too... since I can't work power, I'm working technique at the gym and climbing painfully slow, finding my center of balance, not overgripping, etc.

Oh - random insight: Running on dirt trails is a lot less strenous than uphill mud runs. But running in clear weather is no where near as fun as getting drenched in the rain. :)
