W2D2 done in the rain on a trail loop. I did the loop almost 6 times, and always seemed to be running on the uphill portions. Just little terrain changes, nothing big.0

I always meant to find out what the intervals are in subsequent weeks... I am excited to do mixed intervals! (and run downhill too!)0 -

I was so excited in the beginning once I began to notice how long I usually reach during various intervals and of course the total distance, too. At some point the number lover and statistician crawled out and now I'm very interested in seeing "black on white" how I perform.
I just did W6D1 and during the first interval my pace was too high simply because I was so glad to be out there again. As a result I added 400 m to the whole distance and my leg soreness is another bonus. Don't do as I did :laugh: It's tricky to slow down from too high a pace, if you ask me.0 -

Week 6 seems so far off! Congrats on adding nearly half a kilometer! W2D2 done here. It is nearly 20F hotter today than it was on Thursday, and I was glad for some water when i got home.0 -

Still on week 5!!! But I went 5 miles in 60 min so I still call it a success I just can't get past the 2nd 8 min to feel confident to make it to the 20 min on day 30

I got sized for sneakers over the weekend. I can't find anyplace that has the ones I need one sale, but have found the cheapest place. I hope to get over there today and get them. My running days are going to be Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday, with my JM workouts on Sunday, Monday and Friday. Wednesday will be my rest day. I can't wait to get started on it! (I just never realized how expensive of a hobby something as simple as running was going to cost me!)0

Shoes and a decent bra are the big things from my point of view. Are you starting soon or have you started already?0 -

I hope to W1D1 on Thursday. My roommates boyfriend gets a military discount at Sport Chex. He's going tomorrow and seeing if they have the sneakers in stock to get them at a discount for me. (When my roommate checked it said the style and size I needed was not in stock. When I checked it the one here in the city where we live said they had them in stock, and was the only store in the entire province that has them in stock!) If he can't get them tomorrow, I will go over to the place that's across the street from my work and get them as they have them for the cheapest rate.
My running days are going to be Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. I'm going to do my workout video on Sunday, Monday and Friday. Wednesday will be my rest day. (Simply because I have no time on that day to workout/run in the first place!)0 -
w1D1 completed today.
Sad to say I think it was the first time I have run at all in probably 20 years.
It went OK tho...0 -

W6D2 done. It was a mediocre run, my body felt heavy and I wasn't in a super happy place like the past couple of times. As they say, a bad run is better than no run, and this one wasn't bad by my own standards. Glad to have week 6 over soon and then it's just 1/3 left.0 -
I did W4D2 yesterday and still was able to add on 15 mins of extra walking. The 5 min run is killing me tho. I might stay on this week and keep tortchering myself until I can get the 5 mins down without wanting to die afterwards.0

If you feel like you want to die afterwards, you need to slow down!0
