Week # 2 & 3:

I was thinking about how do I start this post and where do I start. In a span of 1 min I thought writing something about letterman's public apology for hurting his wife, one of my friends first ever half marathon exprience, the movies I am planning to watch, the trips madhu's is making to the autobody shop to get our car fixed, the new fall mums I recently bought, the floods that swept AP and Karnataka :(:(, Govt. flood rescue troops demanding money from the victims for rescuing etc.:):) soon I realised this post is about my week # 1 run exprience and the schedule for 2nd week :). I know am about to start my third week run and am writing about my first exprinece :D

1st week run exprience.
Training-9/21/09-9/27/09 ::: Week # 1
Monday- off- relax and stretch --yes.
Tuesday- 2 miles easy -- yes.
Wednesday- 2 miles easy -- yes.
Thursday- Off- strength- train- crunches and push-ups --no (relaxed at home :)).
Friday- 3 miles easy -- yes.
Saturday- Off- relax and stretch -- yes.
Sunday- 4 miles -- yes.

we could stick to the schedule for 1st week which I think was good, but there is cluase to the practice. Is it ok if I run on the threadmill???? The entire 1st week evening's were mostly chilly so couldn't run on the roads so we both ended up running on the threadmill in Y!(YMCA). Day time is getting shorter day by day as Fall(One of my Fav season in US's 4 seasons) is already here. so I made a point that I should leave to work early and get back early so that I can run when the SUN is still up.

That was the plan for 2nd week run, but couldn't stick to the plan entirely as I had few trips to make to Enterprise-REN-A-CAR,Vendor and the autobody shop in newark, NJ from Mt.Laurel,NJ after work.

so here is my week 2 schedule n exprience.

Training-9/28/09-10/04/09 ::: Week # 2

Monday- off- relax and stretch -- yes as always :).
Tuesday- 2 miles easy -- yes.
Wednesday- 3 miles easy -- no
Thursday- Off- strength- train- crunches and push-ups -- no.
Friday- 3 miles easy -- no.
Saturday- Off- relax and stretch -- Yes ofcourse :)
Sunday- 5 miles --yes and we did almost 6 miles.

The guilty feeling was making rounds in my mind as I couldn't stick to the schedule. And again this time I made plan for week 3 to get back home early so that I can stick to my run schedule. So far I am sticking to the plan of getting home early. Today is the first day of my 3rd week run. so let see how this week goes n how determined I am:):)
