Day 7

Well I have not been training on schedule as I wish that I could have been.
Life happens.

But I have been doing stretches, lunges and toning exercises which did payoff yesterday when I did manage to get some time on the treadmill.

Yesterday I ran a total of 3 miles, with walking (cool down period) included a total of 4.36. I did this in 45 minutes. The next few days I man on moving that up to 4 miles in 45 minutes. That way I can do a 5 mile race in about a little more than an hour. My official goal.

I'm really proud of myself and can feel my body changing a bit. My legs and core feel really strong, and my balance and focus are improving.

Hopefully I can stick with running and make myself a monthly race runner. Starting off slow with a 5 mile race seems to be the best bet. And the next few races I'd like to keep them at 5 miles and then after 3 or 4 move to 6-8. And then so on. Eventually I'll be in a place to do a half or full marathon...triathalons, and IRON MAN! Thats a few years down the road for me,  but I can't wait to get there.

Once I thought running a mile was impossible. But that was before I knew that NOTHING is impossible.


Things that I would like  to discuss  and get feedback on :

What do you wear when running a race?

Any and all suggestions will be helpful. Feel free to email me!

Love and light to you all!
