New goal – In six weeks I want to be able to run 3 miles in 30 minutes. The current plan is 5 minutes walking with 1 minute intervals running 6 mph. Next week I will move to 4 minutes walking and 2 minutes running. This may just be wishful thinking, but I’ll give it a try. We’ll have to see if my knees hold up. Last night was the first attempt and I covered 1.8 miles in 31 minutes. I’ll try to post an update weekly.
I can say that I ran 3 times last week and I have ran 3 times this week (I hope to run one more time this weekend). I guess I can’t say ran yet. Just a walk/run combination.
It feels great! I can tell I’m getting better but it’s hard to measure. I’m keeping a spreadsheet of how many miles I run each night (also calories, steps, and my walk/run plan for that evening). I can do 6 min walk and 3 min run now!!!!! I have even ran for 6 minutes!!!!!
I was feeling great early in the week but I crashed Thursday. Not sure why … maybe Jamie going in early this week .. maybe Jordan not having a pacifier and him getting up at 5:30/6:00 each morning … anyway, Thur and Friday are kind of a bust … I hope Sat will be better. Maybe my honey will let me sleep late and I’ll be refreshed and ready to take on the world.
We’ll see ….
Well … we have had a rough week. It seems the kids had rather complain about school than do it. So, I’ll chalk this week up as done (because they still had to do their work) but not a very effective week in my book.
I’ll be glad to try again next week but I would love for it to go smoother than this week.
We have completed about 30 out of 180 days. We are on week 5 of Classical Conversations.
Our co-ops are going great. But we are struggling with our memory work and writing …
Sometimes you just need to be honest …..
