I started week 2 yesterday and finished day 2 of it today. I'm not brisk walking the walks so I need to start doing that. Other than that, things are going pretty well for me. The jogs are easy for me right now because I haven't been brisk walking at all so hopefully, next run, I can brisk walk it and see what happens.
I'm going to be doing 4 to 5days of Couch to 5k a week. I'm going to do the same workout for that week for all five days so I could build stamina and up my speed. Jayson said I should work out 5 days a week for an hour each and that half an hour of it should be a warm up walk/jog so I'm going to do that.
That may change though once the community pool opens up across the street from me and I get some swimming gear. I may switch up the extra two days of running with swimming like Kaitlyn does. But right now, three days of running isn't enough for me. I need to push myself to do more so I can get into the habit of it all. I still get lazy and snooze a bit and I really don't like doing that.
So far, this C25K experience has boosted my self-esteem like crazy. I feel better everytime I step out of the house in the morning and eventhough I may beat myself up if my distance doesn't get better, I feel frickin' amazing. It has taught me that if I put my mind to it, I can do it. It's only been two weeks since I started taking my powerwalks to prepare myself for C25K and and am on week 2 of the program but I've seen so many changes in myself. I'm so proud of myself for doing something that I never thought I would be doing. I'm so proud of being able to say "no" to junk food. I mean I haven't cut it out of my diet completely but it's A LOT better than what I used to eat! lol
I'm so excited to see what is in store for my future when it comes to my health and my lifestyle! =]
