Five full weeks.

I have made a point to work out or have some sort of activity at least 3 times a week for 5 weeks now!!!!

I went to the Y this afternoon and this was my first hard workout, as in I just felt like I was dragging and tired. Not sure why. Shelley suggested maybe I hadn't eaten enough in the morning or I hadn't had enough water. Both are definitely possible. Yesterday I didn't drink nearly as much as I have been.

I pushed on despite beging tired. I figured nothing hurt and that was most important. I did my warm up and then 5R 2W 5R 3W 4R 3W 3R and then walked for 15 minutes and then a 5 minute cooldown. I did 3.15 miles in 50 minutes. All in all not bad, especially with all things considered.


My plan now is to do 45 minutes on my Mon/Wed workouts and focus on increasing my time on my Saturday by about 5 minutes each time I'm out. Once my heartrate gets lower with this type of set, I'll fiddle with my run/walk intervals to increase the amount of time I'm running.
