c25k w8/1 take 2

one more treadmill run in Annville.

5 minutes @ 3.2 mph - easy
19 min. @ 5 mph - good
7 min. @ 5.1 mph - good
1.5 min @ 5.2 mph - good
1.5 min @ 5.3 mph - why not
5 min @ 3.2 mph - not long enough to cool down

it's getting fun again - or maybe watching the simpson's halloween special while running was fun...

c25k w7/3 take 2

on treadmill at LVC - hot and humid

5 min. @ 3.2 mph - easy
10 min. @ 5 mph - easy
5 min. @ 5.1 mph - good
10 min. @ 5.2 mph - good - probably would have been hard if the world series wasn't on
5 min @ 3.2 - easy

Much Much Better!

c25k w7/1 take 2

on my own on tour - in a particularly grumpy mood - was happy to go run.

Sadly - on a treadmill. I hate treadmills.

5 minutes @ 3 mph
25 minutes @ 5.2 mph
5 minutes @ 3 mph

treadmills are really boring but they keep you going one speed, which is really nice. I'm maybe even looking forward to doing it again and seeing if I can handle it a tiny bit faster.

week 6/3 take 2

hey - 25 minutes wasn't that bad! We did get a much appreciated 2 minute break with only 3:45 to go to wait for caltrain - but really, not that bad at all.

Note to self - WEAR SUNGLASSES!!!

c25k w6/2 take 2b

I wasn't up for 25 minutes straight so we opted for another go at 10/3/10. I did a little better today - Mark said he thought it was a little harder than the last one.

Much cooler.

c25k w6/1 & 2 take 2

I guess I forgot to post about 6/1. We went for distance instead of time - that was kind of fun, although depressing to see that we're about one minute off the mark.

for 6/2 we went back to time - and it is still hot!

Nothing very exciting to report - my butt felt like it had lead in it, and the first 10 minutes were kind of hard. I think we may repeat this one before going on to 25 minutes - we'll see.

c25k w5/3 take 2

back to 20 minutes.

It's amazing how different it feels to think - oh wow, I can't believe I can do this vs. shit this is really hard, I should be doing better.

that plus it is hot today and I'm dehydrated and I had a cramp in my shoulder made today an unpleasant run. But we did it.

c25k w5/2 take 2

I guess I forgot to post after week 5/1 - I think it was fine. Hard to remember since it was a week ago. grrrr.

I really need to learn not to procrastinate. We had the water trials over the weekend, and that was a fairly good reason not to run - but then it took 3 more days to get going again. A week break doesn't help.

That said - 8 minutes x 2 only marginally sucked.
