The C25K program consists of three workouts per week for nine weeks. This is the results of the workout for week two, day two. Program: Brisk five-minute warmup walk. Then alternate 90 seconds of jogging and two minutes of walking for a total of 20 minutes. Brisk five-minute cool-down walk. Result: I completed the workout as planned. I did 1.74 miles in 31:10 for an average speed of 3.35 mph. My heart rate averaged 137 bpm and peaked at 163 bpm. My speed was up just a little, though my heart rate was down just a little. I like it. It had been raining on and off all day and the temperature was in the mid-60s. I had not done a workout in the rain yet and decided to run outside anyway. My iPhone is still being used for Robert Ullrey’s podcast and the RunKeeper Free app. To protect the iPhone from moisture, I wrapped it in a zip lock sandwich bag and flipped it upside down in my pocket so the cord came out the bottom. That would provide some protection in case the rain got heavy. The rain stayed light throughout the workout and the iPhone stayed dry. I didn’t. Most of my shirt was wet when I got home, but I think it was nice being out in the rain. I would rather be cooler and wet than dryer and hot. Of course, if it is hot enough, I’m not dry then either. Because of the wet ground, I varied my route again to avoid most of the grass. I spent more time on the cement sidewalks and did an out and back on the asphalt path beside the lake. This route change contributed to the extra burn I felt this time compared with the W2D1 workout. My warm-up walk ended and the first run segment began while I was still on the sidewalk. The run felt so easy I went faster than I should. It’s not fast overall, just fast for me. Though the majority of my run segments were a little under 5 mph, the first run segment was just under 6 mph. This isn’t much of a difference, but I think it is why I felt the muscle burn sooner and more than on the W2D2 workout. Just as I finished the fifth run segment, I come upon a park bench beside the path. It was so, so tempting to just sit down and rest. Fighting the urge, I sped up my walk instead and ended the last run segment as fast as the first. Another good workout is done.
