October Totals and Week 5 C25K

Total Miles Run - 46.8
Average Pace - 13'30"
Total Steps Taken - 444,292

Week 5 was tough and included a 20 minute run.  We completed the week only walking for 1.5 minutes during the 20 minute run.

Running - Week 4

I have run off and on since I finished college.

A couple of weeks ago my wife decided to start running consistently and I decided to join her.

She and I are following the couch to 5k plan (or one of the many that is out there).  Week one through 3 weren't that difficult.  This week has gotten a little tough, but I am making it through.

Week 4 is:
3 Minute Run
1.5 Minute Walk
5 Minute Run
2.5 Minute Walk
3 Minute Run
1.5 Minute Walk
5 Minute Run

Oddly enough I am running fastest during the last 5 minute run so far, seems like that would be the slowest.  In addition to the 3 day/week planned runs, I am doing one extra run.  This week I ran 1 extra mile straight through and was able to average over 6MPH.

Rest of this week calls for one more day of the above.

Next week, Sunday, Tuesday, Thursday on this plan and one additional.
