Week five, coolrunning.

Finally week 5 has come along. I ran Monday, Wednesday and Saturday as follows,

5Brisk five-minute warmup walk, then:
  • Jog 1/2 mile (or 5 minutes)
  • Walk 1/4 mile (or 3 minutes)
  • Jog 1/2 mile (or 5 minutes)
  • Walk 1/4 mile (or 3 minutes)
  • Jog 1/2 mile (or 5 minutes)
Brisk five-minute warmup walk, then:
  • Jog 3/4 mile (or 8 minutes)
  • Walk 1/2 mile (or 5 minutes)
  • Jog 3/4 mile (or 8 minutes)
Brisk five-minute warmup walk, then jog two miles (or 20 minutes) with no walking.

There was a two day gap in between day two and three. I figured I needed a bit of recoup time between days two and three, just like I used to do in between tempo/fast runs and long runs when I did runnersworld.com programs. It's four more weeks for me now, and then to take the time for a 5k. I figure it will be about 40 mins, but then again who knows. It's good enough for having sat on my ass for more than a year.

Diecisiete dias despues, aun en la semana cuatro de coolrunning.com, 5mw, (3mj, 1.5mw, 5mj, 2.5mw)*2, 4mj, 2mw, 2mj, 5mw = 22 mj, 20mw.

distancia, 2.718 mi, sepa cuantas calorias quemadas... voy mas bien por tiempo y distancia, no por kilos (que me sobran como 30, que deberia).
