More than half way done

It's 10:50 pm on Sunday night & I just finished my last workout for the week. Week 3 is done. Whew! As I posted last Sunday, my goal was to work out 7 times this week. Even on the 2 rest days allowed by the 5k plan, I decided that I would at least do 30 minutes of cardio on rest days. But I missed on day because I was mentally & physically tired. Not from working out but from some personal things that are going on. I don't feel guilty for skipping that day. I kicked ass the other 6 days of the week.

Schedule for week 4:

Day 1 - rest/cross training (will commit to an hour of cardio)
Day 2 - rest day. I am making the decision to actually rest on Tuesday.
Day 3 - walk 40 continuous minutes
Day 3 - rest/cross training (will commit to an hour of cardio)
Day 4 - walk 2.5 miles
Day 5 - rest/cross training (will commit to an hour of cardio)
Day 6 - rest day but I will be doing at least 30 minutes of cardio
Day 7 - walk 2.75 miles

At the end of the 5 week plan, I am going to go back to Golden Gate Park and walk the route that we took during the Do Like 5k. My goal is to improve my time. If I can continue to walk like I did today, I think I just might do it.
