Week 3 Day 1

Workout

90s Walk
3 min Run
3 min Walk
Repeat series 2x

I can't believe I can run for 3 mins. Twice! I do have a confession to make. I went running without Annie. I decided to run at 5pm. It was hot for me, and I knew she'd be too hot if we ran together, so I went without her. I made it home and bent down to take my shoes off and she came right up to me and gave me kisses. I think she was thanking me for not making her go with. Either that or she was licking my sweat.

I took off running headed south at the park. I had intended to run north toward the campus, but I noticed that the wind was out of the south and decided it was better to run into the wind in the beginning and with it to my back on the the way home. BTW, Did you know that when the wind is out of the south it usually kicks up a storm? That is one of the many factiods Jay shares with me. Surprisingly he's right, there are usually storms...crazy. That was one of the things I thought about as I was running for 3 mins. It really wasn't that bad. I've figured out that 60s of running is about 3 and a half light poles. This really helps me keep from obsessing about the time. So I don't spend as much time looking at my watch. I did notice that my legs were a bit sore, but really not bad. I didn't feel like I couldn't make it, so I'll take that as a sign of progress.

I'm planning to run in the morning on Tuesday, so Annie will get back into the swing of things...I promise not to cheat on her again!
