Cool Runnings

June 27th, 2008

So i’ve recently started the “Couch to 5-K” running plan and have begun my exploration of the Clio Bike path.  It’s fortunately exactly 3 miles to the end and back, so it works really well for my workout.  The workout, as well as a Podcast to guide you on your run, can be found here.  Anyone else feel like getting in shape with me?

I’m currently on Week 2 of 9, which consists of 2 minute walk/90 second run intervals.  The intervals will get me to running a full 5k by the end of the 9 weeks. My phone can track and calculate my workouts, so I’ll be periodically posting my results (you probably don’t care, but it’s extra incentive for me to do it.)

Today’s workout:

Distance: 3.4 miles

Time: 34:20

Average Speed: 6mph

Max Speed: 14.5mph

Calories burnt: 569.1

we’ll see if I end up as a running machine by the end of summer.
