I made the decision on Monday that I would start C25K (Couch to 5K) over again. I have just lost so much endurance and stamina over the winter --- and motivation, to be perfectly honest! I would have to back up a bit anyway, so I figured that I would start over, and this time PUSH myself on the speed end of it. Monday was W1D1 (Week 1 Day 1), and it was great. I pushed myself hard. I was exhausted. So much so that my calves were still tight TODAY. I probably would have gone ahead with W1D2 if my shoulders weren't absolutely killing me from also starting the
Hundred Push-Up plan. Yes. Serious pain. In fact I am supposed to do Day 2 of THAT tonight, as well... but... um... OW.
So anyway.... I am excited to have a plan again, and to be listening to the lovely voice on my "Get Running" app. :) Now all I need to do is trade in my phone for an ANDROID so I can get GPS enabled apps get a Garmin Forerunner replace the sensor for my Nike+ that must have stopped working in the months that I neglected it.
I am NOT going to mention the weather forecast. (I live in the most northeastern state in the country.) I will be seriously TICKED OFF if the weather messes with my running mojo again!
Happy running, everyone!
