So, I've started running this week (when I say "running" I really mean jogging, but running just sounds more hardcore). I have kept it up for five days straight (whooo), but in order for me to stay motivated I have to track my progress
Being an ex-Tech student, of course I would map it in Excel. Please see Figure A.
I still have tomorrow to plug in one more data point, but if I interpolated correctly there will be little change from the 10.6__ mark.
Really, I'm not going for speed, but rather distance. It seems strange that although I can keep running for longer periods (today I pretty much ran the entire 3 mile [5km] distance), my times don't improve. I think I jog slow, or I power walk really fast...
Anyways, other than just being able to continuously jog for longer periods of time, I haven't noticed any other physical improvements. My legs are sore, but I guess that means it's working? I'm hoping that by week two I'll notice a little waist line improvement :)
I'm also coupling this light exercise with some diet improvements. I haven't had fast food since I've been to Australia, and if you don't count the Wednesday night fried calamari, have pretty much eaten healthy meals.
