I feel accomplished and proud.
Sunday, Tuesday, and Thursday I did what I describe as “Week 0.5” of the couch to 5k program. Week 1 has you run for 60 seconds, then walk for 90. So on Sunday, when I set out to do Week 1, Day 1 I found that I could not jog for 60 seconds… so I did 30 seconds with twice managing 45 seconds. That’s when I decided I would be doing week 0.5.
Tuesday I ran 45 seconds each time I was supposed to run and the last two times I did the full 60.
Thursday I did 60 seconds the first two times, 45 the next three, and 60 for the last two.
I’ve decided to do every other day so today I did Week 1, Day 1 and ran the full 60 seconds each time.
I have surprised myself!
