Running

A month or so ago, my trainer switched me to an alternating upper/lower body circuit training schedule, and told me to do cardio specifically on the elliptical and bike. I haven't really used the treadmill since. The last time I tried running on the treadmill, I was struggling through Week 3 of the Couch to 5K program (jog 90 seconds, walk 90 seconds, jog 3 minutes, walk 3 minutes, repeat).

Today, I went to the gym right after work (which, btw, kudos to me). I breezed through the "week 3" regimen, and instead of my last 3 minute run, kept going for 5 minutes before cooling down.

I just love these tangible evidences of my growing strength and endurance.
