So I ran outside today. It was cold, about 32 - but the sun was shinning and felt so warm from inside - I just knew I needed to be out in the sun. It's good for the mood, it's good for the soul.
So While I had a little time - I put on a few layers, grabbed the Ipod and off I headed.
I had no idea "how far" I would get. I know where we like to walk in the summer - but have no actual idea of the distance.
My actual 30 min workout for C25K had me actually go 2.2 miles. I did miss a run or two today, as I repeated workout 1.3. Figuring I was entering a new environment - I didn't want to also lengthen my run today. This run was NOT by any means flat ground, I had small inclines and declines, a pedestrian bridge over the railroad tracks (that entered my path during a run phase - but due to snow and ice - I decided i would just be happy getting through it with out ending up on my bum).
I continued my workout - in just walking until I reached home again - and here are the results:
distance: 2.88 miles
Time 47.10
Pace 16'22"
Calories 530.
C25K Program followed 1.3 (plus another 17 as you can see)
My running pace certainly is sloooow.
