All that worry and anxiety for nothing! I did week 4, day 1 today (jog 3 min, walk 90 secs, jog 5 min, walk 2.5 min, jog 3 min, walk 90 secs, jog 5 mins) and while the last little bit was tough, I felt great! It wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. If I'd keep my eyes off the time, and just concentrate on running, I think it would be even better. I'm still slower than a snail, but I'm okay with that. I know I've been so inactive for so long that I have to just get used to running. Once I can do that for at least 30 minutes several days a week, I will work on the speed thing.
I need to work harder on my cross-training and strength training now. We'll see what this week brings!

You jamming to any tunes or listening to anything while running?
ReplyDeleteYes, I have my ipod and the playlist I listen to is mostly Skillet, Puddle of Mudd, Shinedown and Nickelback! That helps with the pace a bit.
