I haven’t gotten much exercise in the past week, so I thought I should get some in while I was waiting for my husband to get home. I set the treadmill to 1% incline, warmed up and got to jogging.
I wasn’t sure how well I’d do since I’m fighting off the beginnings of this cold that’s going around work. You know the one – sore throat, coughing, trouble breathing. It’s nasty and it’s taking awhile for me to actually catch it.
You don’t know how excited I was to jog over a mile without stopping! I finally had to walk at the 15 minute mark because my legs were burning so much… but man! That was awesome! Usually it’s my breathing that’s the problem, but if my legs would have kept going I could have jogged for longer. I walked the last 6 minutes or so and finally decided to stop when I realized that the burning in one leg was from my knee and the burning in the other leg was from my ankle. Even still, I’m counting this as a total win and I plan on jogging some more on Wednesday!
Total time: 21:03, 1.5 miles
