Feeling Confident About Running--Avoiding Injury Is Main Concern

Since I have added the walk/run to my fitness routine at least 5-6 times a week, it has helped improve my running sessions on the treadmill. Not only does it warm up my muscles for the work ahead, it is slow enough that it doesn't tire me out. Now, I have to really concentrate on avoiding injuries now that I have reached my initial goal. Which means focusing on stretching those muscles that I am taxing. I will continue this routine until I leave for my 3-week out west trip -- we will discuss my strategy for maintaining my fitness (and diet) while traveling across country.
