I am currently doing a different training program. It's been great except for the past few session. The premise is this: Day 1: R4, W1, 4X Day 2: R4, W1, 5X Day 3: R4, W1 6X Day 4: R4, W1, 7X Now, last week, we had some crappy weather in terms of lightning, so our schedule was off. But I feel like my runs have not been up to par. Part of me thinks that I am not giving myself enough recovery time in between intervals. We are at the point where it is 1 minute recovery between runs, whereas a few weeks ago, it was 2 minutes. With those runs, we were doing more than what we scheduled. Sorry I ramble. Anyway, the past few Saturdays, we have taken our sneaks to my IL's house and squeezed in runs while family members were doing other thiings. Therefore, we killed two birds with one stone and didn't postpone runs. These runs were different. Less structured. For instance, rather than R3, W2, 6X, we ran 5, walked 2, ran 7, walked 3, ran 3, walked 1, ran 5. And they were great. So...basically I have just finished my 6th week of my plan and am thinking about switching to the C25K and rather than start at week 1, start at week 4 since it's similar to the intervals I have already done. If you've read all this and aren't , thank you! So...Yes, good idea to start at week4 or No, bad idea, do this instead? Also, since my current plan has me running 4 days a week, which I like, and C25K is only 3 days, and I don't want to do only 3 days, what do you suggest I do for the 4th day? I thank you in advance for your opinions.

Thank you! So basically, do Workout 1 twice, then do workout 2, then 3? That sounds reasonable.
