W4D1 - You may remember that I was questioning my abilities to graduate to Week 4 since there was such a huge gap in Week Three, but today I went for it. The first three-minute run was gravy, but that first five-minute, OMG! I knew I should not, but I did - I checked the timer; 1:45 left, UGH. About 20 seconds later a dog came barking across a yard (don't worry, I have walked this route with my dogs many times and he never leaves the yard; I think they have an invisible fence), which gave me something else to focus on. Before I knew it, the leg was over! I think it was knowing that after this five section, I had to do the series again that made it so difficult. The final five, where finishing meant the workout was done, was no problem at all.
W4D2 - Back to the track this morning. I went on the road near home for Day One, but today is a weekday (therefore commuters), and the first day of finals to boot. Running on the road while sleep-deprived, anxious college students are getting a late start to their first exam and driving faster and riskier than usual did not seem like a smart idea. It went pretty well today, with occasionally reminding myself that I did it on Saturday so I can do it again.
W4D3 - Overcast today, which is good for me. Sun did not come out at all until I was on my cool down. Hopefully that will mean no new rashes today. Was rather warm and humid though, so I had my jacket sleeves rolled up. I need to start using some other sort of pocket for my phone cuz it is getting too hot for an extra layer. My knee started hurting on the cool down so I am spending a little extra time under Peas before I start my day.
