C25K - W1D2

for starters, lets define that title.

C25K = Couch to 5k meter run.

W1D2 = Week One, Day Two.

Having defined that - Last night I ran my 2nd day of running. Again, I felt great after I got going and when I finished. My calves were pretty much cramping up on me immediately, and my left foot was hurting, but that’s to be expected when I’m just now coming back into the running thing. All in all, I had a great experience.

The podcast really makes it easy and I don’t have to worry about the timing, and the music included is pretty high intensity techno type music - I like it, but I wouldn’t mind creating my own tracts to run to… that way I could change it up a little bit more and add my own flava to it.

I felt great afterward and again wanted to do more, but I held back my will so I could ensure I wouldn’t get burnt out - I really want to make this a great thing for exercise and health, and I don’t want to over do it and give myself a reason to back out of it. I’m actually really looking foward to next week where the running will be a little more intense… as of right now, i’m actually only running about 7 to 8 minutes - the rest of it is briskly walking.

I like how the program eases you into it, and leaves you wanting more. Anyway, that’s all for this workout - more to follow. Have a blessed day.
