Week 1 Day 2

Monday. 5-minute warm-up walk, then alternating between 60 seconds of running and 2 minutes of walking for a total of 30 minutes.
Wow, day 2 was a LOT harder than I thought it was going to be. My muscles were still a bit sore from Saturday's adventure, so I started "feeling the burn" a lot quicker this time. It was another hot and humid day, and the sun was right in my face for the first leg. Evan joined me this time for a little extra motivation. 
The workout was the same as day 1, so I knew what to expect this time. For some reason though, the running parts seemed to last longer. Maybe because instead of listening to music, I was just running alongside Evan. (It's definitely easier with music!) We did get to see a fox and a couple of deer though :)
I took a slightly different route this time, which actually led me to have to run by McDonald's. I kind of stuck up my nose as I ran by, and was proud that I wasn't inside eating! 
I finished my workout in the park again, in the shade. My legs were burning towards the end and I kept checking to see how much time was left. When the voice finally came on and said, "Begin your cool-down," I was so thankful. Thankful that it was cool-down time, and thankful that I hadn't given up. I made it through day 2! I'm not diggin' this heat outside, but I am diggin' that I'm getting out there instead of sitting on the couch. I feel more fit already. On to day 3!
