Couch to 5k ~ where y'all at? Stop lurking........Week 2, Run 2

Hey there runners!

I did my run this morning and I think I lost some pounds in sweat. I did have my heat on from last night so....................

It's a total mind thing to get up and get moving but once you get moving.......it's all worth it!

Check in! How's it going for you?

Week 5, day 2... holding steady.

I'm glad to hear you're holding steady. Did you feel like it was really hard so far this week?

 I think the hardest part was getting up to a 5 minute run. The transition from 5 minutes to 8 minutes was nothing, but I fear that the transition from 8 minutes to 20 minutes will leave me stranded on the side of the road or falling off of the treadmill. But, this is not a race, not yet. The beauty of this program is that you are only competing against yourself. If I struggle with week 5 day 3, I'll just repeat the day until I get it down (which might not be a bad idea). 

Last night I completed week 3 day 1. Will do day 2 tonight and day 3 tommorrow night. Scout campout this weekend so no running Friday or Saturday. I am sure that I will get alot of hiking in this weekend though.

Ok I am a lil embarrased but I restarted wk 1 yesterday. I felt a little (completely) defeated last week. So I will do wk1 day2 tomorrow evening. Yesterday was still ruff but I didn't feel like a failure. It may take me 3months to finish the program, but finish I will or die trying. I prefer just to finish!

No need to be embarrassed just keep moving forward.............you can do it!

Thx! I guess I underestimated how out of shape I am. But I will complete this program. Besides I paid $2.99 for gotta get my monies worth. Lol
