Did a great 3.25 mile run/walk this morning! I'm starting to like the running. I would run 10 minutes and then walk 3 minutes. Did that for 43 mins with 13 mins walking time. Walked at 3.5 mph and ran at 5.5 mph.
I started trying out running last week, because walking wasn't doing it for me anymore. I mean I could walk and walk and walk but I was barely sweating or even breathing heavy. Which is awesome as I remember back in April there was one hill on my walk that I'd always have to slow down for -- now I don't even notice it. Plus, I think I've got enough weight off of my body to try some longer distances. Finally, I've really decided that I need to run because I read on the interwebs about how the best way to get rid of visceral (belly) fat is through cardio. Well, I know my swims count as cardio, but all of my other workouts were yoga, pilates and walking. I know walking is cardio, but as I stated previously, it just wasn't doing it for me anymore. So, I had to turn it up a notch. Now my goal is to get in 5 cardio sessions of at least 45 mins a week.
But the worst thing about doing the running is that I don't stop sweating for up to 1.5 hours afterwards. I know that means I'm still in calorie burning mode, but really...I hate being all sweaty between my boobs and down my back at work. It's just gross. :-) I don't get that sweaty when I swim. I think because the pool is cooling me down. I sweat for about 30 mins after my swim. Does that mean I need to crank up my swim a notch??? Hmmmmm....I need to think about that.
