I’ve managed one 24min run-walk without flaring up the knee tendonitis so now will aim to slowly get back to around 24km per week running
How to run 3 times a week
It made me
confident 
"de-stress-a-fying"
How I did it: i made a running route that went past like 3 of my friends houses so every time i ran i would stop and say hi to my friends which kinda gave me motivation to run. and if i didnt want to run at all i would think about something that makes me really mad and that would motivate me.
Lessons & tips: run in the morning before the sun rises or at night, because it keeps you cooler and i personally love being outside when its dark.
Resources: ipod, green tea.

Really.

I’m not thinking anything too hardcore here, mostly I just want to get into the habit of regular exercise, and learn to run 10km a little faster than I have been.
Medium-term Goal:
*4-6km during the work week (x2)
*8-10km on the weekends (x1)

Two miles twice this week already! I heard it takes a month or so to make a habit, so we will see by then. But these 5am workouts really are good for me, right?

I’m not exactly running 3 times a week – though I still think that 3 times is something to go for – doing too many other activities like dance…
Did a +/-5k race yesterday, neither distance nor time were too accurate but I must have been very close to my PR :)

Running a 9K Race

Training for the Mother’s Day Title9 Race in Boulder. I would like to have the same time as last year (or faster).
I've discovered

that while running about as fast as before, my heart rate is like 10 bpm lower than it used to be! Must be the combined effect of running and swimming I suppose, never had this happen with running alone.
I’m still running less than 3 times a week, got to work on that…
Got an invitation at work to take part in a 20k race with a team of colleagues. Last year it was fun – might do it again.

2 or 3 times a week now… and it’s going pretty well:) Today during lunchtime was the (somehow official) monthly 5k race for university staff and other enthusiasts (with like 10 participants out of a few thousands of staff members:) With no real athletes in the race, I was the first to finish, time was 17:28 i.e. equal to my PR – YAY!

Its so hard to get up in the morning that EXERCISE! to get into a routine is so difficult but at the rate that I’m going its something so necessary. Hmmm tommorow Im going to get up and do some light stuff.
Couch to 5K
18 months ago
I’m not a natural runner but since discovering that running on a treadmill doesn’t mash my knees in the way that running on concrete does it seems a decent form of exercise!
I’m currently doing the Couch to 5K programme, which is fun and I can see the improvement each time so that is encouraging! I’ve made my goal to “run 3 times a week” as it’s about fitness and sticking with an exercise plan rather than trying to run further/faster necessarily. However I currently do about 30 minutes of run/walking doing Couch to 5K and it would be great to get to a point where I can run solidly for 30 minutes without bits of me giving up.
