Week 6b : Monday : Cool Running
Day 18 : 5 m warm-up / 10 min jog / 3 min walk / 10 min jog / 5 min walk
Total: 33 minutes - walking (13 min) / jogging (20 min)
Instead of moving onto week 7, I am going to repeat week 6. And today, I didn’t even do that. My legs were just not working today. ugh… My shins started bothering me halfway through – after I walked the 2nd time – so I decided instead of pushing myself through the pain, I would back off. I usually will push through the pain which has a way of backfiring on me and become a nagging pain going forward. I do not want that to happen. So I changed up my routine today.
Today: 30 minutes – 5 m warm-up / 10 min jog / 3 min walk / 4 min jog / 2 min walk / 4 min jog / 2 min walk
Not what I was hoping for. Today was supposed to be week 7 – running 25 minutes each day. But I just didn’t have that in me today. After the first 10 minutes it was in my head more than body so I walked 3 minutes – then it was in my body. Ironically it’s the walking that effects my shins the most. arghhhh… Not quiting though. I’ll be back on Wed hopefully on track again.
