Day 9 – Couch to 5k
Posted on 13 March 2010
In the words of the video game StarWars™ Pod Racer, “It’s a new lap record!” 3.4 k! I modified the run to push myself a little and get ready for next week, 3min run, 90sec walk, alternate for 20 min. If you add it up, the run would actually end at 18min. I decided just to run out the 20min, so I finished with a 5 minute run! Feeling pretty good about next week.
If you look at week 4 in the Couch to 5k, it seems very confusing. My plan, right now, is to make it easier on me to remember while I’m out: alternate 5min run with 2 min walk. We’ll see how I do.
My shins only seem to hurt when I’m done with the run and doing a cool down walk. During the run, they’re ok. Still icing, and stretching though. I just see the pain as evidence I haven’t done this in a very long time.
