Friday

19 laps, 2:1 lap run/walk ratio, 32:10 minutes

Okay! That was a pretty good run. I pushed myself to keep up the pace, and managed 16 minute miles for both miles. I felt kind of slow and heavy, but kept going and feel fine afterwards.

Today I took my iPod shuffle out and listened to music while I ran. Since I don't have to listen for the watch beeps to tell me when to run and walk, the iPod doesn't interfere with my midweek runs around the house. I haven't used it on any of the long runs—I'm not sure it would be a good idea, but I might try it and see if it helps me keep my energy up.
