Sounds like you are doing excellent! I don't remember doing that much in w4. I am resting today and will do w9d2 tomorrow if I'm feeling.better. I think I have an ear infection so I'm at the doctor now 
Yesterday I decided to do a fun run and did mile in 12min. Fastest pace yet. Next week I am starting to train for an 8 k in march. |

Wow, quagga! You're doing great! You're not even at the end of the program and you're running the 5K distance. A little over a week to go. Push your mind.
Justdidit: Ew. I hope your ear infection goes away. That and the antibiotics might make you off-balance, so take care of yourself. |

Hi, I'm new. I completed C25K two years ago and was a regular poster at CR at the time, but I stopped running immediately after W9D3 to recover from a stress fracture and never got back into it. This time will be different. 
I did W3D1 this morning and felt great. Even though I haven't exercised much in the last few years, I wonder if maybe I retained some conditioning after all -- I seem to remember it being a lot harder back then. |

hathorne-- That's awesome! Way to get back into it!
I did W4D2 yesterday. It was a push again. Didn't help that I don't think I'd eaten enough yesterday. But I got through it! One more run in week 4.

Happy Friday everyone!
I just completed week 4 today. Using my new math (it's better than the New Math of the 70's. see my counting/not counting thread), I did 1.88 miles in 22:00. I'm already a bit nervous about next week. HARD!
How's everyone's program going? I want reports! Lynneann, how was your first workout today? |

Happy Friday everyone! Acting on my earlier query about miles versus times, today I ran distance over time. I am happy to share that I ran 2.75 miles straight today, which took me 33 minutes. (I am NOT counting my cooldown or warmup.) And...I feel good! I recorded this in my workout log, but I will just share my technique. I started slow at 4.7mph for the first 0.75 miles and increased by 0.2mph for each 0.75 mile after that. I finished at 5.3mph, which is a faster pace than my previous C25K runs.
Keep on running everyone! I am glad to be able to come here and share. |

| W4D1 this morning -- a little tougher than last week, but again, I swear I'm having an easier time than I was two years ago. That said, my shins hurt during the walk intervals and after I get home. I put ice on them when I came home from W3D3 on Saturday, but didn't have time this morning because I had to go to work. I wonder if I'm developing shin splints. Wouldn't it have shown up earlier? |
