angrboda: Running feet with running shoes on. (C25K)

I was actually intending to give a small update for each run, just to say that I had done it and perhaps create some way of accountability. If accountability is the word that I want (or even spelled right). Except I totally forgot all about that plan by the time Saturday's run came around.

But I've done the third one now, and was up to 8 x 1 minute running. I peeked at next time's session that introduces some 2 minute intervals, so that answers the question of whether it's just going to continue adding another 1 minute interval on top. I'm sure it will be fine because it's not like I haven't ever done this before and felt precisely the same way and have it turn out to be totally fine and doable. But I'm still feeling apprehensive about it.

One thing I've discovered in the past week is that my vivosmart still has that weird issue where it thinks that for a split-second I ran really very fast indeed! Husband and I worked out that if Usain Bolt can run 100 meters in, let's say, 10 seconds, then that must mean he's going at a clip of 36 km/h. Let's just say that Garmin evidently thinks that I (moderately chubby, very unfit and closer to middle age than childhood) momentarily move significantly faster than Usain Bolt... I somehow don't think that's very likely. It's irritating because any information it gives me to do with average speed and such becomes pretty much useless. And it's the sort of information I would have liked to use to compare runs with and see if I got faster later on. Anyway, from what I gather apparently this should be helped by working out my stride length, so I'll have to have Husband help me with that.
