Today was 3 five-minute runs with three-minute walk breaks between them. I was able to do it with no problem! I still haven’t picked up my pace any, so I was walking at 3.8 and running at 5.0. The next day is 2 eight-minute runs and the last day for week 5 is 20 minutes straight of running.
I can’t decide if I should try to repeat this week, gradually increasing my pace, or wait until I complete the whole 9 week plan and get up to running 3 miles before I work on upping my speed. Any thoughts from the “real” runners out there?
