Week 3

Down to 292 pounds. That's nice.

It's been an interesting week with running. On Monday I got ready to run and realize I forgot my phone, which tells me when to walk and when to run. I did read the running program beforehand though, so I knew what to do and had my watch:

Walk 5 minutes
Jog 90 seconds
Walk 90 seconds
Jog 3 minutes
Walk 3 minutes
Jog 90 seconds
Walk 90 seconds
Jog 3 minutes
Walk 3 minutes
Cool down 5 minutes

I realized during the first 3 minute walk that I would end by walking eight minutes. I didn't like that, so I changed the second 3 minute run to 90 seconds jog/walk and ran the 3 minute walk. That worked out well.

I followed that formula for Wednesday and Friday. I felt sore by Friday, but I wasn't nearly out of breath as I had been the weeks before. I guess that's endurance stepping up!

The weights were okay, but I only got a lift in on Tuesday. I'm now working at the Missouri State band hall part time and am looking for something a little more permanent. Here's to hoping I'll find a job I can get some hours in!
