Today was Week 2, Day 1 of Couch to 5K.. and Tricia and I were concerned :) - We looked into it and instead of walk 90, run 60 this became run/jog 90 seconds, walk two minutes.. we thought it was going to more difficult, but in a few ways it was easier, because we had a little more time to catch our breath during the walk segments...
Tricia was having some issues with her knees - years of playing field hockey, etc. have taken their toll - so she got some knee bands, and tried them out for the first time - and while being a little uncomfortable, they seemed to do the trick by compressing where they needed to - she did great!
So, we continue to kick ass and run through the pain.. we're going to get there.. and we're supplementing our walk/run with some dumbbell weight work on the days we're not doing the c25k.
No pain - no gain! Now if I could only tell the scale that! :) I seem to be locked in at 185.5 or so... need to break through the plateau and start losing some more weight! But definitely starting to feel my arms and legs responding to the workouts.. excited for the possibilities!
That's it for tonight - here's some photos... be good!
-Pittle out.
