Determined

Friday started week 2 for c25k.  This meant a change in the routine.  Longer running and walking periods - fewer reps.  The Friday run was fairly pain free and I even kept a good pace and didn't lag behind my husband.  The drop in temperature was nice - not too cold.  I'm not looking forward to it getting any colder though.  Sunday's run was complete opposite of Friday's.  I don't know if it was because it was an am run or what but it kicked my butt.  I struggled the entire time.  There were many things that made it different and I am not sure what made it so hard - 1. neighborhood, not the trail = hills 2. am and not adequately nourished pre-run 3. felt bad to begin with.   I still went through with the run.  I wouldn't say it was pretty but I finished it.  I got 'in trouble' for dragging my feet and 'putting on the brakes'.  I honestly didn't even realize I was doing it.  Hubby asked me several times if I just wanted to quit and walk the rest of the way.  There was no way I was going to do that.  I am not going to backtrack on a program.  I am determined to finish this.
