My First 5K: Week 10

Week 10 of my 5K training is in the books. I’m getting pretty anxious to run this race, but I still have 7 weeks to go! I can notice that my body has become used to running, which is obviously great. When I first started training, I could barely make it 5 minutes running without wanting to quit. This week, I ran close to 40 minutes without needing a break, which is a big accomplishment for me. I’m very curious to see how I’ll fare come race time, but I’m not worried now about being able to keep up or worse – not finish! Below is my workout schedule for the week – non-bold is my 5K training schedule, bold is my regular workout schedule.

Monday: Run 8 minutes walk 1 x 2

Tuesday: Walk 15 minutes, 50 sit-ups, 30 minute treadmill run – intervals

Wednesday: Run 8 minutes walk 1 x 3, 15 minute Pilates DVD with resistance band

Thursday: Walk 15 minutes, 50 sit-ups, 60 minute treadmill walk – incline

Friday: 30 minute treadmill run – intervals

Saturday: Run 8 minutes walk  1 x 5

Sunday: Day Off
