The first steps...

Overall goal for first steps section:

RUN in 5k on 12 Feb.

Daily Logs:

17 Jan - Today I ran using week 3 of the "couch to 5k" running plan:

Surface:Treadmill

Run/walk intervals: 5/3

18 Jan - Used the same plan...

Surface:Treadmill
Time: 27 min
Distance 2.09 miles

Slightly faster pace. Feeling pretty tight and sore afterwards, probably from running two days in a row after not running for so long.

Surface: Outside
