I’m testing out Robert Ullrey’s C25k Podcast while running. I took a couple minutes to listen to it before running. I’m not a “techno” music type of person and this seems to have lots of techno, we’ll see how the 1st time goes…
Dec 30th – Got through the first day and it went well! I felt that I had been challenged after completing day one, and actually excited about my next walk/run. The music improved as the podcast went along and I think it actually helped me to get a good pace/rhythm.
Jan 2nd – Day 2 – Last time I ran on an indoor track. Today, I feel a cold coming on, so did the routine on my elliptical at home. (I use the term “elliptical” loosely!) I definitely prefer the track! I found myself counting the seconds for each walk/run. Looking forward to another run on the track.
Jan 5th – Day 3 – Back at the track. The pesky cold is still with me, so taking it easy. I was still able to complete the week 1 walk/run and even felt a little better afterwards.
Jan 6th – Still feeling yucky, but wanted to stick to the plan. Was able to get through the entire session again.
I am planning to repeat the week one exercise schedule again (5 minute warm up. 60 second run, 90 second walk – 8x). That way others can join in and I can still run while trying to get rid of this nasty virus!
