I completed week 5 yesterday. Week 5, day 3 is the dreaded day. Those of you who have used this app know exactly what I am talking about. Week 5, day 2 goes like this.... walk 5 minutes, run 8 minutes, walk 5 minutes, run 8 minutes, walk 5 minutes. Week 5 day 3 goes like this.... walk 5 minutes, run 20 minutes. EEK!!! I was scared to death. I wanted to do this so badly and not stop! Well, I did it!!! I even ran extra after walking for awhile. I ended up doing 4.57 miles. I am estimating that I ran 2 1/2 miles of that. I was so excited when I got done!
I did something different for this run. I decided to go run the bridge in my town. We live near a lake. They have made a walking path across the lake. It is 2 miles each direction. Straight, flat, etc. I have never been on it before. Not sure why, just haven't. I decided it might be a good place for my 20 minute run so I headed over there yesterday. I loved it! It was beautiful. I will definitely be going there more frequently. :)

You're so right---it is a scary leap when you get to Week 5 Day 3. But---YOU DID IT!!! YAY!!! Looks like a lovely place to enjoy your exercise--being flat is a nice extra perk. ;)
