I wasn't able to run yesterday due to work commitments. So on to Day 4.
Today's run was tiring for some reason. I think it was because of poor pacing. I exerted more effort at the start in an attempt for a faster run time. And the result was I got tired early, and it affected the rest of the intervals. Overall, certainly wasn't happy with my performance, although I'm certainly happy to have gotten active for the day.
I'll try to practice my pacing tomorrow and see how it goes.
Here's a recap of my running so far this week:
Training Program: 3 sets of 5-minute walks, followed by 5-minute slow jogs.
(Disclaimer: I am not following any expert recommended training plan here. I just want to gauge my tolerance level and get into the groove of this lifestyle again.)

That's all for now. Do leave some comments if you have any suggestions on making these series of posts more interesting. I certainly don't want it to be just a journal for myself, and do hope others reading this can get equally inspired.
Running Journal Overview: This is a run series journal that I aim to update regularly. My objective for posting is to give myself a check and hopefully implant the discipline of being consistent with my fitness plan into my system. I invite everyone who comes across this journal to also adopt a healthier lifestyle and be more active and fit.
