And it's a good one! The new plan is....the old plan! I had been slowly poking my way through a Couch to 5K at a very doable pace. Then I had a hissy-fit/pity-party and quit. Again.
Bur now I am back though I have spent the last week and a half just getting turned back around and facing the right direction. So now, as Blanche reminded me via SparkPeople, I need to get my crap together and have *just* enough time to tackle the Couch to 5K before the Race for the Cure.
So, here goes!
Now, full disclosure: I am under no illusions that I will be running or even jogging. But I would like to finish with my dignity and in a respectable personal time. I would be utterly thrilled to finish in 45 minutes, but it is unlikely. I hat to set an hour as my goal. *sigh* So, I guess an 50 minutes is the goal.
Ok so goals are supposed to be concrete, measurable, and specific.
1. Complete, as best I can, each square on the C25K chart.
2. Finish on under 50 minutes.
The plan is here as a nice printable pdf.

When I walked at the Y last week. I walked at a pretty good click and did a 15 minute mile...twice! :) I bet if we stay focused and get a good spot, we could do it in 50! That's a 15 minute mile plus 5 minutes for the extra tenths, crowds, and that darn hilly neighborhood. PERFECT! 50 minutes it is!
Thanks for the pdf link. I printed it out. I have a question though. I see it's a nine week plan. But there's workouts 1,2, and 3. Is that one workout for each (3) days we train a week? Or is it based on fitness level? On the off days are you doing any training, cardio or strength?
