C25k: week 1 session 3

1 minute run, 1.5 minute walk, 8 times
2 April

A nice run, and definitely further than I went on day 1.  My standard run here is to have a warmup walk down to the canal, then out west along the canal to the first bridge, after the aqueduct.  Then back up the bank into Hirst Wood and along the track back to the lock, then back up home.  It's a nice mix of some flat canal path running and some woody trail running, and then with a steep hill home for good measure.  The full circuit is about 2 miles, but I don't run most of it... Yet...

Physically, I'm really aware that my breathing is bad.  After about a minute I'm breathing too heavily to feel I could continue for much.  Either I'm not really breathing for that time, so am operating anaerobically, or I'm going far too fast.
