Ow. ow. ow.
That’s what I sound like when I walk today. My legs are soo sore and tired.
I’ve been trying to go to the gym every day, and if I don’t go to the gym then I walk to the Target at the corner and back - according to Google, exactly 2 miles. I’m alternating very vigorous days with not so vigorous days. One day I run, which is what I did yesterday and why I’m so exhausted today, and the next I either walk or bike a bit. I was going by a “Couch to 5k running plan” I found here. I’m impatient, though. I’ve kinda glommed the first 2 weeks together because I already had endurance to do that and was getting bored. The last 2 days I’ve run, I’ve alternated 5 minutes on, 5 minutes off for 25 minutes, after a 5 minute warmup walk. By the last run, I’m completely exhausted. Good thing, I think, is that my *body* isn’t the part getting tired anymore - I’m not winded when I’m done - its just my legs hurt. That’s good. It means my heart/lungs are keeping up with my workout, I just need to build up the endurance in my leg muscles a bit more.
I can bike for a good long time, and once I can pace myself running, I need to try running off a treadmill too. Then I could do a Bi-athalon!
