Just trying to increase the amount of time within that hour that I spend jogging as opposed to walking.Annienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7264695680584938039.post-38619210351613185992010-03-31T21:11:38.587-04:002010-03-31T21:11:38.587-04:00Thanks for the info Jess.

It would depend on how much my wife gets into running. For now, we're looking at borrowing one. We're planning a family 5K in late April.Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03806353710709814218noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7264695680584938039.post-11549878424465452162010-03-31T21:04:58.106-04:002010-03-31T21:04:58.106-04:00Speed is a good thing to work on if you have limit...Speed is a good thing to work on if you have limited time.<br /><br />As per your question on my blog about the jogging stroller: My daughter liked it when we first started using it, and for the most part, she usually falls asleep when we run, but if you've read my blog for the past two days, she's thrown her own mini-revolt, so I don't know if this is a temporary reaction or a permanent one yet.<br /><br />If you're thinking of buying one: Two things. One, babies can't be "run" in a jogging stroller until they're about 6 months (or can sit pretty well on their own); however, there are adapters that can be installed so that you can use a car seat inserted into the stroller for walking. So you can use it as a stroller before 6 months.<br /><br />Two, if you're an avid runner and you think you'll USE it for running, don't go cheap. Buy a good brand, like BOB or Baby Jogger.Jesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01465800584212530717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7264695680584938039.post-37845183086507004452010-03-31T10:41:42.254-04:002010-03-31T10:41:42.254-04:00I'm so proud of my kids!

Maybe increase every other week. Just see how you feel over the next week or so. Also, you're already at a good workout time. Maybe instead of trying to increase time, try increasing intensity.Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03806353710709814218noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7264695680584938039.post-69691677785402473712010-03-30T16:15:51.710-04:002010-03-30T16:15:51.710-04:00I did the walk/jog thing today on the treadmill. ...I did the walk/jog thing today on the treadmill. Worked out for an hour. 5 minute walking warm up, alternated between jogging on speed 5 for 2 minutes and walking on speed 3.5 for 1 minutes for a total of 45 minutes. Then I jogged for 10 consecutive minutes at the end. <br /><br />I think I may try to keep this up where I jog for a consecutive amount of time at the end and start increasing that time (i.e. next week walk/jog 40 minutes and jog 15 minutes; following week w/j 35 minutes and jog 20 min).
