C25K Progress Week 6

Day 1 - July 27
Jog 1/2 mile; walk 1/4 mile; jog 3/4 mile; walk 1/4 mile; jog 1/2 mile

Blerg. I did not feel well yesterday and that reflected in my run today. I had NO energy and I was achey. I only did 1/2 mile run, 1/4 mile walk, 1/2 mile run. I don't think I'll repeat the day, though, because I know I could have done it had I not felt like crap yesterday.

Day 2 - July 29
Jog 1 mile; walk 1/4 mile; jog 1 mile

That was really not fun. I couldn't figure out how a 1 mile run could seem so difficult when I easily did a 2 mile run on Sunday. But when I uploaded my run from my Nike+ I realized why - I was maintaining a pretty strong 10 or 11 minute pace! What?!? My pace on the two mile was about 12.5. I guess my body is letting me know it's ready to try to push a little harder. Woohoo. :) And, dear goodness, it was humid - 92%. It was like running wrapped up in a wet blanket.

Day 3 - July 31
Jog 2 1/4 mile

I RAN FOR OVER TWO MILES! Wooooot! I didn't even look at my Nike+ to check distance until 1:13. I was totally rocking it! 1:54. Easy peasy. 1:98. Ok, we're almost there, and ~wow~ I'm starting to feel this.

Every second past the 2 mile point was torture. I confess it. My legs hurt. My breathing was ragged. Sweat was pouring off of me. 2:19. I can't. 2:20. I can't. 2.22. No, seriously, I can't. 2:23. I'm gonna die if I don't stop. 2:24. OMG this is ridiculous! 2:28. Wait. 2:28? I went OVER?!?

Distance: 2.28. Time: 29.48. Pace: 13.06. (Nike+)

Week 7? BRING IT! :D
