None to Run: Week 5 Wrap-Up

Aaand this wraps up Week 5 of my None to Run adventure. Off to week 6!

I took it sloooow this week because I wanted to build my strength and base for the 90-second runs before I go a wee bit faster. Which is the plan for Week 6.

Below are my Week 5 Stats:

Week 5 Day 1

Had a bit of misgiving (just a bit) about this run, but I still made it lolz. One minute rests? Between 1.5 minute runs? You kidding me???

Week 5 Day 2

If I remember correctly, I felt good with this run. Can't be sure. Run 2 is the middle child of my weekly training sessions.

Week 5 Day 3

This was tougher than usual.

Is it because I had sugar the past three days or is it because there's a forest fire nearby and the smoke/air quality was killing me?

Weird because Sunday and Monday I woke up with leg cramps, but my calves were totally fine today, and I thought this would be my killer, but nope.

Either way, this wraps up Week 5!

Final Thoughts

Week 5 is done! Woohoo!

Week 6 is a repeat — it's still on 90-second runs with 1-minute rests.

This is why I love love love love None to Run so much. It's a gentle program and it transitions slowly but surely.

It's nowhere near as fast as Couch to 5K, but so what?

I got hurt with Couch to 5K. It was too advanced for me. I may have gone farther on the first session, but I also got injured and didn't run again after many months (or years even).

Oh, and Week 6 is halfway through the program. This is crazy.
