Week 4 Day 1 and a swim

Thursday Bill and I went for a dip in the housing pool. I swam a few laps then decided I wanted to hang out underwater. We spent about 20 minutes in the pool, but it was enough for me. I did not have a good workout.

This morning Mina and I met for her Couch to 5k run. She wanted to jump ahead to Week 4 Day 1. Ty (her husband) ran with us. He wants to get back in running form before the physical fitness assessment next month. Mina set the pace and did really well. There were two sets of three and five minute runs. She didn't even look like she was breaking a sweat!

As we were on the cool down walk, she said that she thought she could complete the 5k in and hour and a half. Ha! You can crawl it in an hour and a half! We did 2.23 miles in 31:33 today. That's 70% of the distance! I'm betting she can do it in less than 40 minutes. I think I did my first on (after only completing week 7) in 35:25, so I think she'll be fine!
