Successful Day !!!

So for a week I have been doing alot on the treadmill following the beginner running program from Kevin. I started from the begining to see where in the program I was cause I knew that I was past week 1. Last Thurs, Fri and yesterday I was doing about 2.5km jogging 2 minutes walking 1 minute for 30 minutes. Today I moved up to week 4 of the training program and think it's a good place to stay and continue with week 5 next week.
Today was a great day ... I wanted to see if I could do 5km. (since I am registered to do 5km March 13) So I started with my 10 minute warm up walking at 3.5 kph and then jogged at 7.0kph for 3 minutes, walked for 1 min at 4.0 kph for 5 sets !!! Then did a 5min walk at 4.5 kph and then started the jog for 3 min, walk for 1 min for another 3 sets. (I really wanted to do another 5 sets but it wasn't going to happen..lol) So then I just finished off with a walk at 5.5kph to complete ...
5 km in 56 min !!!! I really want to be able to do the 5km on March 13 in 45 minutes so I'm on a mission !!!! Wish me luck !!! :-)
I completed my workout today with 40 regular crunches, 20 ball exchange crunches and 20 lower leg crunches. ( I seriously couldn't do another thing with my legs after the 5km ..lol)

Thanks Kelsy for joining the Golden Shamrocks !!! I love that you are always there to join me !! It means alot !!! :-)
