Day 3 April 20, 2011 Speedwork day Cold outside
Dressed in my heated running gear, grabbed gloves this time, and watch, and drove to the Seawalk. Usually I would walk, but I didn't want anything to mess up my program.
10 minutes easy run, then 1 kilometer fast - goal 6:35. Timed my run start and finish - 5:53! Finished off with more easy run to make 20 minutes total. Really felt the 1 km speed work, but it was doable. Kept thinking that maybe the seawalk stretches so its a longer 1 km. Doubt it!
Home to cycling and exercises. Its already becoming a routine. Take off outer clothes, grab coffee and water and hit the bike. 7 minutes, 3 minutes planks, 7 minutes, 3 minutes pushups ( added 1 more to make 7) and situps, 7 minutes, 3 minutes stability. Again time for shower and off to work.
Oh, and I weighed 161 lb today. How does a person lose 1.5 pounds overnight? No wonder people are told to trust measurements over scales. Waist is 35 inches.
I was thinking how smart Jerry is to start me off slowly. I think if I had to run more than 15 minutes Monday or Tuesday I would have been ready to give up.
