Day 2!

So today was day 2 of c25k as it shall now be known. I was definitely not clever enough to come up with that on my own. It was a good day. I put on my work out playlist and ran my little heart out. I noticed it was much easier today, and my heart rate did not get as high as last time. My breathing was not as bad either. Probably a fluke, but it made me feel good.

Todays work out:
5 min walk
1 min run, 1.5 min walk x8
5 min walk

1.61 miles.

Couch to 5k.

So, its been a while since I posted. I did P90 until Labor day and then things sort of fell apart. It definitely helped me, but rotating between two workouts got tiresome after a while. It didn't work well for my sort of ADD mentality. So, now that I am back from Hawaii (I did get a new swimsuit!) I am up for a new routine. My friend Maggie just finished her first 5k using couch to 5k, and I am so impressed my her, that I am going to try the same thing. I started tonight, and it is a nine week program, so I should be ready to run a 5k in mid-January.

Todays work out:

5 min walk warm up
1 min run, 1.5 min walk X 8
5 min walk cool down

Anyone want to join me? :)
