Running Man: Day 5- Summary Day

So, I haven't gone running yet today. Actually, I've only been "awake" for about an hour (I don't have classes on Friday, and it's reeeaaaaallly cold outside). So, here I am at 1:30PM writing this little entry in my blog. Keeping track of what I ate kinda went to shit, because I can't even remember what I ate yesterday (I had a piece of stick for dinner though).

Anyways, Monday I did a short 20 minute run because it was rainy, cold, and absolutely miserable. Wednesday, I did a 30 minute run, it was a little warmer, and it was the furthest I'd run since I started. Yesterday though, I ran for about 15 minutes, then went in to the gym and used the stationary bike for 40 minutes. I meant to go every other day, but I think I'll just use the bike twice a week.

Rough Weekly Schedule:
Monday- 20-30 minutes with strides
Tuesday-30 minutes
Wednesday- 20-30 minutes, with bike
Thursday- 30 minutes
Friday-20-30 minutes with strides
Saturday-20 minutes
Sunday- 1 hour

Sunday's run is what my coach told me to include. He said the best way to speed up weight loss and get back into running shape is to have at least one long run, and right now, to take it run 20 minutes, walk 2-3, run 20 minutes, walk 2-3, run whatever is left. Sunday is weigh in day (I cheated while I was in the gym yesterday, and checked, still on pace for my 2.5 a week) so, that'll be good right after that long run.

You know what else will be good after that long run? A big glass of Chocolate Milk.
