Third Week

Max Distance: 1.5 miles

Weight Loss this week: +1

Weight Loss Total: -1

I only made it twice this week, and that took a lot of effort. Today, I moved up to "Week 2" on the training schedule. Let me tell you, there is big difference between jogging for 60 seconds at a time and jogging for 90 seconds at a time. At least it feels like a big difference.

Also, my knees are killing me. They were killing me on Monday before I moved up to jogging more. Am I supposed to just run through the pain? Should I be doing some kind of different stretches to help? I took some Aleve this morning a few hours before going to try to help it. And I stretched really well after my work out.

I have found that the type of music I listen to helps a lot. When I listen to Rap/R&B, I tend to not count down every second of the jogging part. It also helps when I know the words and can get lost in the lyrics.

I am bummed that I put a pound back on. But I haven't even started to try to diet yet. We go to NYC this week on vacation, so I will worry about my diet after that.
