Yet Another Couch to 5K (C25K) Blog

C25K - Week 1, Day 2

Second C25K over with. Today should have been an "off" day, but since I know I will be mowing tomorrow, I had to get it in.

For some reason, tonight seemed harder. Same routine, just can't explain why, it seemed to burn a bit more.

I'm certainly feeling it now that it is over.

Anyhow, I'm working on the Podcast for next week. A few 2009 tunes (BEPs), some 80s (Biily Squier, ??), some rap (Hammer, LL Cool J) and a Christian tune (Group 1 Crew). At least that's the idea so far.

I may change my mind before next week's run. Music that motivates, that's my key.

C25K - Week 1, Day 1

So apparently, this C25k (Couch to 5K) is going to build up my stamina so I can handle a longer run in a few weeks.

That should be cool, because the first walk/run went pretty well. It is essentially 30 minutes of running for 60 seconds, rapid walking for 90 - wash, rinse, repeat.

And the next week, it builds on that, and so on.

You can check my other posts for the details of the program.

I like it.

I'm hoping I can get up to speed before long and maybe run with some friends.

So far, it is a night thing. Though, I'd like to get up and cardio in the morning. Not sure how to adapt to that. One thing at a time, I suppose.

Tomorrow is a "rest" day from C25K, but I may give it a go and rest on Friday.
