The couch to 5k program has been completed and it seems to make sense to keep moving forwards, so I started the gateway to 8k program today (g28k). Going back to intervals was a bit strange as the last few weeks of c25k was non-stop running, but I think my pace increased compared to the previous week (4 intervals of 7 minutes with 1 minute recovery periods). I got to test out my new running shoes and soon I should be able to see how far and fast I am really running when my Garmin forerunner arrives (it tracks using GPS rather than the less reliable footpads).
