Technically (when posting this) I'm past week 8! How had time gone by so fast?!
On Thursday (15th) I completed another 3 mile run. I've been averaging about 50 minutes per 5k (3.1 miles) which is much slower than in used to - I know since I'm on a treadmill times are a little slower than normal, but it's still disheartening.
Well, Monday (19th), my half day at work started off great, but I was so unmotivated to run; I really wanted to go home and nap instead of running five miles. I sucked it up and did my five miles though!! It took forever, and the treadmill restarted after an hour, but I finished :)
I'm really slacking at monitoring how I'm feeling during most of these runs but I'm on top of monitoring mileage so here goes:
23rd - 2.5 miles run/walk, took 40 minutes
24th - 2.5 miles run/walk, took 44 minutes (not including a mile on the glider and 2.5 miles on the stationary bike)
26th - 2.5 miles run/walk, 38
27th - 1.25 miles, 20 minutes (a strength/weights day)
Workouts Completed: 22
Miles Run/Walked: 49.75
Days Until 5th/3rd Riverbank 25k: 100 (ahhhhh!!)
Days Until Bayshore Half Marathon: 114

A Little Sidetracked
Sunday of Week 3: Went for a run Sunday evening and Planet Fitness was the emptiest that I've ever seen it! Today I was supposed to do 2.5 miles and I was going so strong with just one walk break by 1.25 miles when I accidentally pulled the emergency stop cord and the treadmill stopped my workout and wouldn't let me restart :( epic fail and it totally threw me off my pace. But I still finished, just not as quickly as I had hoped!
Monday of Week 3-
Had to use the glider since it was an awful day for my back!
Then the holidays kicked in and I pretty much stopped working out...
But now I'm back at it! Over the last week and a half I've rallied and completed four workouts, which isn't the best, but better than nothing! In those workouts I've completed several miles and stayed on track with my 25k workout plan!
Workouts Completed: 16
Miles Run/Walked: 33
Days Until 5th/3rd Riverbank 25k: 114
Days Until Bayshore Marathon: 128
