Challenge Day 6/Week Two

Today was my first jog of the 2nd week of my challenge. In my first week I jogged 16.4 miles!! I am stoked about my success thus far and ready to celebrate my completed challenge. :) I have a ways to go still, but at this rate it won't be a problem! This morning I put in 4 miles!! Now, I got winded much quicker than I expected to so I walked .5 miles after jogging the first two miles. The break allowed me to catch my breath enough to do the last two miles without much trouble. My knees are bothering me though and it started to get really hot towards the end of my jog. I need to go out about an hour earlier tomorrow to avoid the heat. I am not sure what to do about my knees, but I am hoping that there isn't any kind of permanent problem that I need to worry about. Maybe I just need to stretch more before and after the jogs. I also need to include some strength training to keep my arms and abs from getting or staying flabby. Anyways - My times this morning were: 1st mile - 12:26 mins - j 2nd mile - 24:33 mins - j .5 mile - untimed - w 3rd mile - 36:51 mins - j .1 mile - 38:07 mins - j .9 mile - 49:04 mins - j .25 mile - untimed - w Total of 4 miles jogged and .75 miles walked.
