Week 3!

I started week 3 today.  I didn't find it too bad.  The 90 sec run was no problem.  I found I got tired about about 2 1/2 mins of running the 3 minute interval, but I powered through it!  The second one was the hardest.  I really had to use my mind to keep going, but I did it.  I went first thing this morning since the kids were having a sleep over.  I was exhausted when i got up.  I didn't fall asleep until around 2 give or take, then woke up around 6ish, then the alarm went off at 8.  I learned that I need to eat before I run.  I'm now feeling nauseous a bit.  I know that it is from a combination of the heat (with humidex it already feels like 25 degrees) and no food, but I need to pick the kids up by 11:00, so I wanted to make sure I had my run in.  Turned out I had time to do both, but oh well.

Not sure how my pace is now.  I ran further then my turn-around point for the second 90 run interval then I turned around before the big turn (there were a lot of dump trucks going by and I didn't want to meet one on the turn), but when that run interval was over, I happened to finish at my original turnaround point.  My last 3 minute run started right before I hit my road again, so I ended up doing my "cool down" walk for most of my road.  I know I turned around with only 1 interval left, but I didn't feel like I ran very far even tho my pace seemed to be on par with before, but my distance wasn't there.
