Day 47

Gave my legs an extra day, gonna shoot for today, Friday and Sunday instead of Tues./Thurs./Sat. this week.

5 minutes walking
4 minutes jogging/1 minute walking x 2
8 minutes jogging/2 minutes walking
5 minutes jogging

*sound of me hitting wall here*

1 minute walking

(The last part was supposed to be 6 minutes jogging/2 minutes walking.)

Total time: 31 minutes
Total mileage: My pedometer’s battery died! I was probably at about 1.9 miles, though, judging by how far I got into the course.

Most jogging I’ve done yet in a single workout, and I was fine until that last leg. Legs were OK, breathing didn’t suck, considering the extra distance I was adding. On the last leg, though, man did I get dehydrated. Gonna have to actually bring a water bottle with me on Friday, which I haven’t been doing for a while (just relying on the park water fountain, which has been more than enough for a while until today). I’m recovering pretty well, though, about 10 minutes after I finished. This is a good reminder that I’m not quite ready for the 5K, though. I was gonna shoot for Monday’s Pier Village 5K, but that wouldn’t have been prudent. Almost there.

Instead, I’m gonna try the Deal 5K on October 12th, I believe it is. You heard it here first. Wish me luck.

Onto Friday.
