Okay, I skipped Friday because of weather, but ran today.

Week 3 - Day 1 (28 minute workout):

Brisk five-minute warmup walk, then do two repetitions of the following:
- Jog 90 seconds
- Walk 90 seconds
- Jog 3 minutes
- Walk 3 minutes
- Five-minute cooldown walk



Knowing I had to jog for 3 minutes straight, I jogged really really slow since I didn't wanna burnout at the end. At the halfway mark I was surprised where I was in the workout; not surprised by distance, but how fast it came. So ran for 3 minutes, then walked, etc. At the last 3 minute run, I went as fast as I could, but it wasn't fast at all because, again, I didn't wanna burnout. I thought the walk following the last run would be the cooldown but it wasn't. I ended up walking for the last 8 minutes which I didn't expect.

In the end, I could have pushed myself harder but the 3 minute jog had me a little intimidated.

Next jog will be Monday.
