So I ended up running yesterday and today because of scheduling this week. I tried to space them out as far as I could.

Yesterday was not as easy as the 2.5 run/2.5 walk had been previously, but I got through it. I ran fasted, and while the day was heating up. It's been 90F+ here this week :-( Burlap seemed to be more trouble but it might have been my crummy mood that made it seem that way. He was a stray and he eats bugs, nuts, leaves, just about anything, really. But for the most part he heels, I think I was just so grumpy about doing poorly.

Tonight's run went pretty well - it's 3 run/2 walk. I'm really enjoying this program. In the last interval, the guide starts talking and tells you that it's the last bit, and that the crowd is going wild for you! And the rest of the interval is people cheering, as if from the sidelines. It sounds corny, but it helped me push through when I thought I was going to quit, and made me feel like I wasn't alone.

I got home and stretched, and sat at the table chatting with my husband. I realized that I felt utterly fantastic after my run!

Your program sounds great - I'm glad the cheering helped!
