Week 4 has 2 cycles of a 3 minute run with a 90 second walk, then a 5 minute run followed by 2 1/2 minutes of walking.
Day 1 was rough but doable. I really wanted to punk out at the 4 minute mark of the last 5 minute run but decided I didn't want to post on my facebook page that I wussed out in the last minute so persevered and finished it off.
Day 2 was pretty rough-I think it was more that I was sleep deprived and worn out than it was the program. I completed all the runs but I did give myself an extra 30 seconds of walking in each cycle.
I'm continually amazed each week that I'm able to do that weeks tasks. Looking ahead at the weeks when I started the program it looked pretty daunting but I'm almost at the halfway point all ready.
I'm also amazed at how great I feel after running. Granted there's been some creaky knees and sore shins but overall I feel so good at the end of each workout. (lol-especially true since I invested in some good sports bras and not the girls are secure!)
