C25K W1D2

I didn't have to be at work until noon today so I had plennnnnnty of time for a run this morning! It was by no means easy, but it was definitely better than last time. I was able to finish all 8 runs!  Hooray!  I was feeling some shin hurtyness but it wasn't terrible, so that's good!  

I did it!  Week 1 Day 1 of Couch to 5K!  

Sure, this is the third time I started the program, but as I said to my friend earlier today, at least I'm doing something! 

I had to start a little later than I wanted to today because of sunrise.  There is no way I'm going to run by myself at the beach when its dark.  After I got out of the house at almost exactly 7a, I realized I probably could have gone earlier because it was really bright out.  Oops!  Next time I will shoot for 6a.

Anyway, the run itself was pretty good! I made it through 7 of the 8 runs and walked through the fourth run.  Not bad for my first time back, in my opinion.  It felt great to be out on the beach again.  I really missed it this winter.  I dressed pretty appropriately as well. I was a little chilly when I was in the shade, but felt great in the sun.  

I will be missing Zumba and boxing bootcamp this weekend so I'm going to run on Saturday afternoon when I get home from an overnight trip.  I'm not in a huge hurry to make it through C25K, I just want to succeed at it.  I was doing so well last fall until the weather turned crappy. I liked doing each week twice so I could get really comfortable with the runs before moving on to the harder program....so I'm going to do that again!
