5K training week 6

Thank goodness it feels like spring is here! I'm so happy to shed layers when I'm outside and feel the warmth in the sun! So missed!

So last week wasn't a super week for running but I did get out twice. I went for a 4K run Wednesday morning and on Friday afternoon I took Josie out for a run with me. She likes to pull on the leash which is a pain for me but I know if I work on it, she'll get better. We managed to do close to 5K. That was fantastic because now I know I can do it and faster than I thought!



I'm not sure how this week will look though...
I meant to run Monday morning but I was too tired so I slept in...
I did run this morning (Tuesday) but only 3K...
I may run tomorrow morning (Wednesday) or...
I may run Thursday...
I'll probably take Friday as a rest day...
Saturday is my first 5K race...
And Sunday will probably be a rest day...

Anyway, I'm not too worried about it. I think as long as I get 3 runs in a week I'll be happy. Anything more is just a bonus. What I really need to work on is strength training. I have great intentions but no follow through! I have to work on that.

  2. I love reading your running updates. I used to be a runner, and am thinking about getting back into it -- watching your training is inspiring. Keep it up, you have a great attitude!
