Week 2.1

So this afternoon, was the beginning of week 2. I should also point out that it was extremely warm this afternoon and I am not a fan of the heat.

Anyways, I began with a walk home from work. Darling hubbie came and got my backpack. I was doing FANTASTIC. I don't find it too bad going from 60 sec to 90 sec and I REALLY like the 2 minute recovery walk. However, after run interval 5, I really had to go to the washroom (I hate the heat). I quickly paused by app and ran into the house. Then I went back outside to resume my run.

During the last run interval, I received a text. I didn't look at it and just kept running. A few moments later, I was beginning to think that the 90 sec was never going to end. But I kept going. Finally I heard the application say "one minute left". That's weird, I thought. He usually says that on the final walk. I remember doing the math that it is six 90 sec walks and six 2 minute walks. (Even though I would be running more than week 1, I was excited about less intervals). Anyways, I decided to check the i-phone, and lo and behold, because of the text, I missed him telling me to walk. So my last run was actually 2 minutes 30 sec.

So moral of the story - Hopefully week 3 won't be too bad for me!!!

Wow! That's good that you were able to do the 2 mins and 30 sec run! Sucks that you had to tho. LOL. Was it one of my many texts about my washer/dryer? LOL.

Anyway Congrats!

Hahaha!! That's funny, but wtg!! Maybe week 3 won't be bad for you. It's the first 3 minute interval that kills me. But the 2nd one is good. :)

Congrats on the loss!!
