Today was Week 6 Day 2 of the Couch-to-5K running plan. The plan for today was a 5 minute warm-up, a 10 minute run, walk for 3 minutes, another 10 minute run, and then finish with a 5 minute cool-down.
Total was 3.08 miles in 37:56 (12:18 pace). Warm-up was 0.41 miles in 5:30 (13:28 pace). Intervals covered 2.04 miles in 22:53 (11:12 pace) with a maximum speed of 7.1 MPH. Cool-down was 0.63 miles in 9:32 (15:07 pace).
Today’s workout was rough. I took the day off today from work, slept in, ate some birthday cake, and then headed out the door to run at around 1:00 PM. That definitely wasn’t a good idea. And then to make it worse, it was about 20 degrees out in the shade, but quite a bit warmer in the sun. I ended up getting sweaty during some sections, and then being really cold in others. Overall, this was one of the least enjoyable workouts I’ve done up to this point, and I was pretty miserable by the time I got back home.
Regardless, I’ll be attempting W6D3 on Friday. That’s a single, 25 minute run. Hopefully I’ll be better prepared for it than I was for today.
