Runner's World 8 week Beginning Runner's Training
Walk/Run 2:1 - 30 minutes
This was actually quite easy for me. I was surprised. I broke a little of a sweat but am taking it easy because I haven't really ran for about a year now. Last year around this time I ran a 10K in a little over an hour but after that accomplishment I sort of dropped it. I'm picking it up again, thinking about the 1/2 marathon with Mere but I'm not fully committed yet.
Running feels a lot easier if I keep my back straight (for me it feels like I'm leaning back, but I'm not) and also keeping my hands/arms on the side, not swinging across the front of my body. When I move out of this posture I notice running feels a lot harder.
Three more 2:1s this week and then on to 1:2s.

So you're walking 1 minute running 2? That's great! Don't you think your body sort of remembers what to do and it's not quite as difficutlt as starting to run the first time?
It's DEFINATELY easier this time. And I'm only 1:2 1 run 2 walk, but I could have done 1:1 easy.
