Made it!

I am progressing more slowly than the canned C25K program would expect. But hey, I'm a short portly woman in her late fifties, so I have persistence, experience, and wisdom going for me, but biology against me. But today I completed week 5 workout 2 on the second try. I decided it was more important to be successful at a given level than to keep to some arbitrary timetable.

2 8 minute runs, the first was almost easy at 5.5-5.1 with most of the time at 5.3. Heart didn't get over 148. The second was very hard, from 5.3 to 4.8 with half the time at the bottom. Heartrate hit 150 a couple of minutes in and stayed there even with the slowdown. But I had music and I got there.
