Workout #5

OK, I just couldn't do it. Walking was boring me to tears. So I did a 1:1 walk/run ratio for 15 minutes of my 30 minute walk today. It was on a treadmill, and I was going at a 3% incline. The running raised my heart rate quite a bit (to the 165-170 range), so I backed off on the walking minutes to 3.5, instead of the 3.8 I had started off walking at.

Ah! I feel much better. Only thing is I hate treadmills, so I'll be heading outdoors Thursday a.m. for my workout. Thankfully, the sun has started rising early enough for me to do that.
