Couch to 5k
So I did my last C25k entry in September, and I'm trying to pick back up where I left off in January. I bought some new, more supportive, shoes, and am attempting to get back to running because I feel so strong when I run that I'm really jonesing to get back to it. Not to mention the extra calories burned!
Tonight I started again and right out the gate I ran for 5 minutes straight! I was about to die afterward, lol! But I ran for 5 mins, walked for 5 mins, ran for 3 mins, walked for 3 mins, ran for 2 mins, walked for 7 more mins. I've been off from running for 4 months, I can't just jump right back in and expect to hang like before.. although I'm in decent shape from biking 3-4 hours a week, running is much harder!
Made it through my first day back, next day is Saturday.. wish me luck!
