switch

Week 3

last run this morning on week 3 cut this short as kids go back to school and I had shitloads to do before work - still did the 3/1 bit but repeated 4 instead of 6 since I'm doing 4 a week instead of 3 - this is okay. Felt like a runner and not a novice today could easily run past the 3 mins but kept the brakes on.

Gonna switch and stick to the runnersworld programme this will be be two weeks longer than I wanted to do but will mean 30mins run target at 8 weeks rather than 20mins at 6 weeks - the programme looks good and as Ive taken this up at week 3 and its going well this seems like a good idea.

The Plan

Week 1 Run one min, walk 90 seconds. Repeat eight times. Do three times a week.
Week 2 Run two mins, walk one min. Repeat seven times. Do three times a week.
Week 3 Run three mins walk one mins. Repeat six times. Do three times a week.
Week 4 Run five mins, walk two mins. Repeat four times. Do three times a week.
Week 5 Run eight mins, walk two mins. Repeat three times. Do three times a week.
Week 6 Run 12 mins, walk one min. Repeat three times. Do three times a week.
Week 7 Run 15 mins, walk one min, Run fifteen mins. Do three times a week
Week 8 Run 30 mins continuously.
