I ran week 5 day 2 this morning and I felt great doing it! Actually ended a bit far from home so I ran another 8 min set! 24 mins of running in total! My next 5K is in about a month and I'm pretty darn excited for it!

How far is your bike trip?

After a crazy week last week (lots of activity, but no running ) I went out this morning for a great run. Not sure what day of C25k I'm on but I had a FABULOUS 25 min run this morning. (I figure I'll do a few more weeks of these, maybe I'm on Week 6?) Looking forward to Wednesday's run!! Hopefully you all are enjoying the beautiful weather we've got here - the humidity broke and it's perfect running weather!

Today was my Week 4 Day 1 run. It felt great, but I continue to battle this foot pain. I am faithfully icing after my runs, though! I have a business trip coming up, so we'll see how that messes with my progress. I have plans to run while I'm away. DH is coming with, so maybe we'll have some running adventures together! I love keeping up on each of your progressions through the program! You are all doing so great!

I ran week 6 day 1 yesterday and went way too hard. Thought I was an athlete and forgot that I am still carrying way too much excess weight. I have been just running for time up to now but yesterday, because I am a smarty pants, I thought I would try the distance instead. Went out too hard for the first 5 mins and then spent the rest of the time trying to recover. Ended up finishing the distance but a whole 1:30 mins behind. Also not good was having a massive stitch in my side and a headache when I got home. Pretty stupid but a good hard lesson learned. Day 2 tomorrow and I will be taking it steady and letting my body rule my head, not the other way round. Well done to everyone - Keep going.

Wow, JB! That is one long trip. Meewolfie, that's so cool that your husband is trying C25K.

I broke the 2 Mile Mark for the first time today!!! It was 27*C (80*F) with 30% humidity and almost no wind. This is probably the warmest weather I've run in so far. I felt really good in my run and wasn't paying attention to distance or pace. Then the face fell off my timer and skidded across the path so I had to stop to pick it up and check if my pedometer was broken. (Yeah, I use a pedometer for timing until my sister gives me one of her old Timex watches). That threw me off. I think I need to be a bit better hydrated. The last five minutes were tough, but within a few minutes of finishing, the bit of stomach discomfort passed. Nothing serious. Felt good today though! MTA: temp conversion
