Divas Half Marathon 5K Training Day 3

The beginning of March I started jogging again.  I am training for a 5K race that is in June but I'm at the walk/jog stage right now.  I had planned to run 3 days a week but last week I only ran 2 days.  The first day was good especially after not having run for a while. I am following the C25K program since I have done the program before I started on week 5 which is walking for 5 minute warm up, jog for 8, walk for 5, jog for 8 and a 5 minute cool down. My route has an uphill part which is my warm up but when I get to the top I am usually out of breath when I start jogging.  Once I get on the flat part of the path I can find a comfortable pace to jog at.  The other day it was very hard to run.  I had no energy and my legs felt like lead.  Today's run was really good. I had a good pace going and a comfortable stride.  I felt pretty good after the run.
