OK so today I did my first real workout. It consisted of a warmup walk followed by intervals of running for 10 seconds and walking for 1 minute, and then a 10 minute "free form" run.
I started out at 2 mph which is what I did yesterday, but it didn't fit with the music. So I went to 2.7. Seemed brisk. Then when I went to the intervals, I did 2.8 and increased to 3.3 (that's running for me) . After the intervals, I did 3.0 mph for the last 10 minutes.
I actually liked the interval parts best, I felt like things were happening. I kind of looked forward to the next running part because I could get past it. The last 10 mins were agony. I am sure that I will look back at this and laugh my ass off and think i could do 3.3 MPH crabwalking.
Let me get this straight: I do not like this. It sucks. My feet hurt and my hip hurts and my back hurts. Buuut, I have to admit. I was driving my car today and I noticed I felt uh, good? I mean like more energy than usual? not like coffee or food energy but like the energy you feel in the sun. we'll see what I say tomorrow morning! HA!
