29AprSummary of week #24

This week has been the worst ever (considering running). I had a terrible day with one pair of shoes and a huge blister had developed on my left foot. See pictures below. Clearly I wasn’t able to walk, so all running exercises were canceled.

This is the picture from day 1.

And this a few days later. Still hurting…

29AprSummary of week #23 (45min/5.6km/335cal)

This week I had just one exercise. Not much to say about it really.

07AprWeek #23 Monday exercise 45 min (5.6km)

I started to write donw the intervals in my exercise so here they are:

  • 5 min warm-up at 6.5 kmh and 5% incline
  • 15 minute run at 9kmh and 1% incline
  • 10 minute walk at 5-6kmh and 1% incline
  • 10 minute run at 9kmh and 1% incline
  • 5 minute cool down

Altogether 5.6 km in 45 minutes and 335 calories burned.

I guess this will be the only exercise this week because of the large blister that had developed on my left foot. It was not due to running but walking in some old/new shoes I now hate. I would rather not post a picture of it. It looks horrible and I will work from home for two days - because I cannot even walk normally! Wish me the best!

05AprSummary of week #22 (65min/6.5km/520cal)

I did only one exercise on the treadmill and on Sunday I went out and peddal my bicycle for an hour and a half. Did approx. 24 km and came back quite tired. I’m planning to do more and more bicycle rides this month.

02AprWeek #22 Thursday exercise / 65 min (6.5km)

This one was a bit longer exercise - 65 minutes. I have burned 520 calories and walked 6.5 km. This was a good one and I plan another exercise this week (not to be stuck in the “One exercise per week” summary again).
