Great run!

I forgot to mention my run yesterday. I did the C25K, W1D2 workout, and it was too easy! Crazy, huh? On the last interval, I ran 2 minutes instead of one, and I added another 2 minutes of lighter running to the end before my cooldown. Not bad, eh? Oh, and my fastest speed was 5.0. I think the Serena training for the last few weeks really set a good foundation for my C25k workouts. I mean, I run 4-minute stretches with that workout, so the 1-minute stretches of this first week of the C25k are a bit easy. I do say that the time on this workout FLIES by even though the music isn't my favorite.

Since I'm in such the beginning stages of this, my main focus is the length of time I can run, which in turn will enable me to run one mile in a stretch by the end of the month, hopefully. I still keep track of distance (which was 2.0 miles yesterday) and speed, but time is the short-term goal.

Shawna,
Thanks for stopping by my blog! I lost about 18-20 lbs. over the course of training for the half marathon.

I'll be stopping by to read YOUR progress on the Cto5K program! A 5K is such a great place to start!

My littlest one just turned two, but I, too, was in a physical and mental funk. Running really made a difference. Good luck!
