C25k Week 2, Day 1

Happy Royal Wedding Day!



Kate Middleton looked absolutely stunning in her Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen wedding dress. I hope I look that lovely on my wedding day (whenever that may be!).

I completed W2D1 today (after watching the wedding - and the balcony kiss - until about 2pm... in my pajamas!). Unfortunately Runkeeper lost the signal or something and the tracking feature stopped working! I don't know how far I went. I would guess it was about 2 miles in total excluding the cool down.

Sunday will be W2D2 and I intend to run on the road in the hope that I can get an accurate reading of the distance this time.

C25k Week 1, Day 1

I can't say I felt like running this morning but I did it. I think I am in better shape than I was when I attempted the C25k last year so that in itself is a pleasant surprise! I am planning on running home from work at some point this week, but that will be on the sidewalk (pavement) and today I ran around the grass field at the local elementary school. I'm not sure which I will prefer.

My distance today: 2.11 miles, 227 calories burned, 14:17 avg. min/mile

I am using Runkeeper on my iPhone to keep track of my progress. The calories may not be exactly right, but it uses a GPS system so it should be a pretty accurate reading for the total distance.
