Get With The Program!

After 3 weeks of not moving forward in my Couch to 5K (C25K) program, I did tonight.

Finally.

Week 4 Day 1 (W4D1) was a long time coming, but sooooo worth the wait.

I rested my foot the first week after my injury.

The second week, we (my friend/running partner and myself) decided to redo Week 3.

The third week, we barely had any days open, so we did Week 3 AGAIN.

Tonight, it was time to move on.

And it felt SO GOOD to be challenging myself again! Week 4's intervals are as follows ...

Brisk 5 min walk to warm up
Run 3 minutes
Walk 90 seconds
Run 5 minutes
Walk 2.5 minutes
Run 3 minutes
Walk 90 seconds
Run 5 minutes
Brisk walk to cool down (for however long it takes us to get home)

This is a program anyone can do. I mean it.

Two months ago, I never would've been able to run for 5 minutes straight...truly.

Now, I run for 5 minutes no problem

While talking

In snow

And ice

And 30 degree weather

And I want to do more

I am back with the program and loving it.
