Officially, I'm on week 2 of a walk-to-run program off Women's Health. During week 1 I learned why you need running shoes, not the cheap-o Walmart sneakers bought last year for gym shoes (where the treadmill was given a wide berth, thankyouverymuch. I liked the elliptical more, ok!?). After some sharp, shooting pains in my calves, I decided to take a break for a few days. From nearly everything- walking, Shape's Bikini Workout Plan.
Today, however, is a new week. Morning workout? Check. Off to mall to buy actual runners? Check. Go for run? Check! Ok, so my calves are still a little angry with me, but I'm starting to think it's a good hurt, and they felt a lot better with proper shoes. They're all silver and pink and pretty and springy. In sane-person terms; Adidas Boost 2. I got them because they weren't too pricey, and since I'm new to this whole running thing, didn't feel like spending a good chunk of change on shoes.
Next goal? If I get through this Women's Health program, I'm getting one of those Nike+ kits for my iPod.
