    I did w5d1 yesterday, distance version. The best part was the drizzling rain that started just as I finished the last run interval.

    w5d2 yesterday- 2 runs of 3/4 mile with a 1/2 mile walk between, so 2 miles in 25:03. I felt good and am happier with my progress. We'll see how I feel after a 2 mile run tomorrow!

    C25K week 6 complete! I'm actually starting to think I can do this. I'm no where near running 3 miles, but I can run for 22 minutes straight!

    Ran my 2 miles in 21:58 yesterday to finish week 5!

    Today was our Girls on the Run 5k. We had about 900 girls running the race, each one with a buddy runner. I think there were about 3,000 participants. I ran/ walked keeping an eye on some of our girls and finished in 38:39.

    Accidentally did w3d2 yesterday instead of week w1d2. Didn't even notice until it said I was finished, and it felt good. Decided to see how long I could run without stopping and made it 10 minutes! I've found once I get into a good groove, I feel like I can run forever.

    Yesterday's run was meh, w6d1- 2.25 miles in 28:53. I was running on the campus of our local community college, so lots of street crossings and changes of direction. Because it is getting dark so early, that is my best option if I can't run at lunch or get off work early because it is near work.

    Restarted today, W1D1. It's the third winter I have done this program. I moved to the mountains this summer and was worried about running up the hills and running out of breath at 5000 feet. But, I had no problems today and felt great running all six intervals. All the walking I have been doing for the past few months was good preparation.

    @jennybearlv There is the proof that walking is a valuable form of slow - low impact exercise that pays big Dividends. :) Pretty soon you will be doing the same distance in 3 intervals.
