2 weeks left… making contingency plans

Tried to run 5K this morning.. EPIC FAIL.. I really haven’t been putting my best effort toward training, so I only have myself to blame. In the words of Yoda, “Do or do not, there is no try” so I will run everyday this week and go just a bit further each day. I know I can walk the 5K, but I really want to run 60% of it at this point… so 3K running 2K walking.

My next 5k – Day 2 and Day 3

Day 2 was boring I just walked 2.7 miles. I’m using trial and error to see how long it takes me to walk a 5K.

Day 3 this one has made me hurt.  Both of my shins are throbbing and my right knee is protesting.  I did my 3 low 1 med interval run again, same as Day 1.  Pain in my shins took my mind of my breathing so I wasn’t sucking wind as bad until the last set.  According to the scale, I lost 3 pounds of sweat. I’m thinking my scale is whacked.  My major goal for the rest of today is to drink 6 glasses of water.  1 I’m drinking now as I type.

Tomorrow I plan on just walking.  Going to get in my truck later and drive a 3.1 mile route so I can get a feel for the distance.
