January 6th run

WOOHOO I ran, finally. Although it was a sad amount of running. I went back to C25k and started myself on week 2 which is run 90 seconds and than walk for 2 minutes 6 times. It took a lot out of me. My calves were burning and felt swollen. I had a lot of difficulty in catching my breath, even a minute into walking after a jogging session I could take a deep breath, the kind of breath that really expands your lungs. It was a weird feeling,I might have been able to do it if I stopped walking all together but it wasn’t like I was walking quickly, the Nike app thought I was standing still and paused the workout a few times.

On the bright side afterwards and today my legs feel OK, a little stiff but not bad.  When I started I was worried I was going to fail the day but I seemed to just get by. Not sure if I can do next week’s run but I have a couple more times for week 2 before I get there. Hopefully I can build up to it.
