Week 6b : Friday : Cool Running

Leave a Comment

Day 21 : 5 m warm-up / 10 min jog /3 min walk / 5 min jog / 1 min walk / 2 min jog / 1 min walk / 3 min jog / 5 min walk

Total: 35 minutes - walking (15 min) / jogging (20 min)

I wanted to jog at least 20 minutes today even if it wasn’t 20 minutes straight.  So after the first 10 minutes (which I had a hard time with), I decided that I was going to run another 10 minutes – no matter how many times I had to walk in between.  My end workout time of 35 minutes wasn’t bad.  And I did run 20 minutes today – just not all together.

Funny how just a few weeks ago, I would have been thrilled with this workout.  sigh…. once you get a hit on something anything less than it becomes crap?!?  Hate when I do that to myself…

So I’ve decided that because of my sluggishness this week (and I think part of it is tied to the heat/humidity outside – I can’t open the door as I had been before), I’m going to stop the workouts for a few weeks and go through the Fat Flush plan again.  Then I’ll come back and try the Cool Running from the start but upping my jog speed a little – that way I’ll also have somewhere to go – drop – when I can’t run the full speed.

I did the Fat Flush plan back in May for two weeks and lost 10 pounds on it.  It really helped clear out the middle section of my body – my stomach wasn’t bloating and I felt better in general.  So I’ve prepared my shopping list today for getting myself back on the plan.
