Day Two

I'm still training for the 5K, loves. Aren't you proud? I'm following the Couch to 5K program, so none of this is my original concoction or anything, but in case you're curious what Week One, Day Two consists of:

- 5 minute brisk warm-up walk
- One minute jog
- 1:30 walk
- Repeat steps 2 and 3 for 20 minutes

It was a little more struggs today because it's hotter than blazes out there. More struggs=sweating sooner than last time. Overall though this whole workout is kind of a joke at this point, because I really wasn't inactive to begin with like this training program assumes. I'm just not active enough to tackle an intermediate training plan from the get-go. Also, this one has times rather than distances, which I like better.

For those of you at home (in Latvia) keeping score: no, I did not get lazy and skip yesterday's workout. This training program only has your training three days a week, because as anyone involved in athletics knows, rest days are just as important as training days. I do strength training on my rest days. Strength training=whatever workout in Seventeen magazine looks the most appealing to me, ideally one that won't make me sweat.

Does anyone know why Twitter sucks lately? It takes for friggin' ever to load, and that makes me sad :(
