Happy New Year!

Hello old blog friends,

I’m starting the new year as I mean to go on, and that’s with blog post and workout plan!

Today I started Couch-to-10K from the beginning. My plan is to work on speed. (And to stick with the program until the end, obviously)

couch to 10k, week 1 day 1

 

This was today’s run. Not bad for Week 1, Day 1.

This workout is 5 minutes walking, 60 seconds running, and 90 seconds walking (8 reps of this), and then 5 minutes of walking. Since it was such a short running interval, I thought I would really push myself and go for 7.5. And I did it the first three intervals! Then I did the next one at 7.0, the next at 6.5, and the rest at 6.0.

I am way out of shape. I’ve been working two full-time jobs and using that as an excuse for indolence. I have not had a proper exercise program since September. Needless to say, that’s made me grumpy, chubby, and just not a happy lady. So we’re changing that in the new year! I can manage 30ish minutes a day. I can and I will!

How was your holidays? Anything New Year’s resolutions?

I'd love to hear from you
