Shin Splints
Nov 18 2008 14:41

This sucks. I got shin splints and so I'm going to wait a week before running and I'm going to get new shoes.

Week 7 Day 1 down.
Nov 09 2008 08:09

I did the 25 minute run. I'm slow though, I only get just over 1.5 miles in that time.

Week 6 Day 3 is DONE
Nov 07 2008 07:54

I can't believe it but I got through W6D3.  I think I'll do week 7 on Saturday.

Week 5, day 2
Oct 28 2008 23:24

2 - 8 minute jogs with 5 minutes walk between complete.  A lot easier then expected, and looking forward to trying the 20 minute jog.

Got through week 5 day 1.
Oct 28 2008 07:51

Wasn't hard at all, now that I established from last week that 5 minutes at a time isn't impossible. 

Day 2 I'm looking forward too, going up to 8 minutes at a time.

Day 3 I'm not looking forward too, being it is just a 20 minute jog with no breaks.

Week 4, Day 2
Oct 24 2008 07:39

I actually got up at 6am yesterday and did it.  It was rough.

Week 4, Day 1.
Oct 21 2008 07:52

I got through day 1 of week 4 of the C25K on Sunday.  It wasn't as bad as I'd expected, but today I'm supposed to do week 2.  I like to do it before work but it's now so cold out, and when its cold, I sleep.  So I'll do it after work or tonight.

Done with week 3.

Got completely through week 3 of the couch potato to 5k. 

I'm finding I'm not losing weight as fast as I was doing this, but thats because I only do it every other day and 3 days a week instead of 5 or 6 days a week on the ellpitcal.  But it's all good. 

I will be down 20 lbs once I lose about 1 more.

C25k
Oct 16 2008 14:37

I started doing the couch potato to 5k about 4 weeks ago.  I didn't get to go every other day on Week 1, so I stretched it out 2 weeks.  Tonight should be W3D3.  I think I will be able to do OK until week 5, and that looks scary.
