Couch to 5K ~ Week 6

Sorry I'm so late blogging this (I did back-date the post so that things stay on schedule). We had an especially busy week last week. Thankfully, I still completed the routine!

Week 6 Routine:
Workout 1- Brisk 5-minute warm-up walk; 5 minutes running; 3 minutes walking; 8 minutes running; 3 minutes walking; 5 minutes running; 5-minute cool-down walk
Workout 2- Brisk 5-minute warm-up walk; 10 minutes running; 3 minutes walking; 10 minutes running; 5-minute cool-down walk
Workout 3- Brisk 5-minute warm-up walk; 25 minutes running; 5-minute cool-down walk

Angie's Week 6 Schedule: I started the "week 6" routine on Friday, April 3. I completed it on Friday, Sunday and Thursday.

Angie's Notes: This past week was crazy! (Friends in town, lots of late nights, looming deadlines at work, Easter holiday.) As a result, I didn't complete a fourth (extra) workout this week. I'm glad I stuck to the program, though. I had one three-day stretch without running, but that's not so bad in the grand scheme of things.

And given the fact that I can now run for 25 minutes, I'm still getting good results! I made it to the lake, around it once and part of the way back. I want to do one of my workouts strictly around the lake this week, so I can see how far I'm running. I think I'm somewhere around a 10-minute mile.

Now that I'm running for longer stretches, getting outdoors is a must. I don't think that I could run for 25 minutes straight on that little indoor track. Blech.
