All Right Now

NHS Couch to 5k  Week 3  Run 2+3


For the runs in Week 3, you  begin with a brisk 5-minute warm-up walk followed by 2 repetitions of the following; 90 seconds of running, 90 seconds of walking, 3 minutes of running, 3 minutes of walking. 

The last 2 runs of the week were pretty similar.  I like to run before dinner so I can eat straight afterwards.  Insert picture of ravenous dog.  I felt like I was moving better, my knee seems okayI usually struggle at first then get better as I go along.

There was no frustration this time about my speed (or lack thereof).  I'm just hoping to improve my stamina. Still have to improve my shallow breathing.

I would definitely recommend some dynamic warm ups before you start.  It seems to be helping me along with the yoga stretches after.  On youtube, I  do this ekhartyoga, yoga for runners or yoga with Adrienne for a longer class.
