Ok...so I've decided to blog. Most of my entries will probably be randomness so bare with me. I'm kinda a random kinda girl;) Hopefully my entries will either a) make you laugh b) encourage you or c) possibly make you think a little. Either way, I hope you like it! This one will probably make you laugh;)
It's the beginning of a new year so like most of the world I decided to make some resolutions. I'm kinda funny about sharing them because you really have to stick to them then, right? (haha) Anyway, a few weeks ago if you would've asked me my resolutions I would not have said what I'm about to admit to you. I want to run a 5K this year. I know if my sister is reading this she is laughing her tail off, but it's true. I've never been much of a runner or athlete for that matter. Yea, I cheered but I was mostly a choir/orchestra geek as kid. Oddly enough I married someone who is pretty athletic (lol). It's actually pretty great! He really encourages me to go for it and knows what he's talking about. I appreciate him so much! Anyway, I got kinda into trying to run last year, but it ended shortly after it got to be 900 degrees! I'm not so blessed to have a treadmill....yet. I really did enjoy it! Plus I lost 20 lbs! That's enough to get me back out there if nothing else! So, a friend of mine asked me to join her and some other girls for a 5K in February. I was like, "What?! I haven't ran since June!" lol It got me thinking and now I'm on a journey to accomplish this goal. I'm hoping to do it in April and I think I have some friends to do it with me. I may do the one in February, but I know I won't be able to run the whole thing;)
Day 1: I downloaded the Couch to 5K app...which I LOVE! It's basically interval training and it builds weekly. There's even a "trainer" that tells you when to run and when to walk. It's great! All while I listen to my music! Can you tell I like it? ;) The run went well. This weeks interval is 5 min warm up- 1 min jog - 2 min walk (repeat for 20 min) and 5 min cool down. It felt great to get at it again! I'm really looking forward to conquering my giant!
Day 2: Is coming soon.... hopefully tomorrow;)
