Plan: Run 3 miles
Actual: Run 3 miles

Today was the last day of the C25K program. I am absolutely amazed that I managed to stick to the program and that I was able to accomplish the goal of the program - to run 3 miles. Today was definitely the easiest 3 miles. I still have to offload the heart rate data, but I think I may have run it at a lower heart than the other runs this week, meaning that I’m getting fitter.

I managed to find another 12-week program by Hal Higdon that takes you up to 15 miles a week in 3 months. I’m pretty sure I’m going to follow that one, but I’m going to poke around see what other plans there are that I can follow. For the next 2-3 weeks I plan to simply work up to 10 miles a week I’ll also be changing my running days. Instead of running Mon, Wed, Fri, I’m going to run Sun, Tue, Thu and do a longer run on the Sunday.

Since the C25K program is done, this will be my last entry in this blog. I’ll start a new “Running” blog for any future running entries.
