My quest to complete the couch to 5k program is going well. I feel that I have recovered from my months off this spring, and I am confidently completing the week 3 sessions. Having learned from my injury, I am taking a mandatory day off after every workout.
I also feel that I am actually jogging now. The first time around - before the injury - I was completing a jogging-type motion but at a very low speed. It was more like speed walking than running. My goal was just to get my body used to the jogging movement and begin to work the muscles correctly.
I am a bit nervous about progressing to the week 4 regimine. It involves 5 minute stretches of running. I may require an extra cycle through week 3. I can feel myself getting stronger and faster on these intervals and I'm not sure I am ready to move on yet.
I will give the week 4 regimine a try tonight though, and hopefully the rain will subside a bit before I go out. Poor Oliver and his mop feet will have to stay home tonight!
