C25k Week 2 Day 1 – Arg!

Today I went for my run but again had technical difficulties. I got the app set on the wrong day — twice — and ended up running way more than needed. I did over 4 minutes the first go until I realized I was on the 20 minute (!) day in week 5. Then when I reset I was on week 3 day 1.  Turns out I’m not ready for 3 minute jogs yet. And my little fanny pack thing is stretchy and really hard to get my phone in and out of. I can’t decide if I like it or not.

The errors are my fault because I had been reading up on the days and looking ahead, but arg. I had such goals!

Anyway, there were was nobody on the track today except me at noon. Nice.

Again forgot my selfie, so here’s a picture of my shoes. Aren’t they pretty?  When it comes to sneakers I just buy whatever color is cheapest in my size, but these happen to be really nice. I went with the Saucony Kinvaras because Saucony is the brand the running store fitted me with years ago and the Kinvara is popular.

I figure I ran about 10 minutes all told today. Still did the 2 1/4 miles, but I was disappointed in that because I was really hoping to get a little farther on the track. Maybe Friday, but I’ll have to go early….
