I'm so excited! If you remember this post you know I've been working really hard at getting back into exercising. It hasn't been easy; I've had to skip (quite) a few days due to some health issues. But I keep telling myself that I'm going to finish what I've started.
I just finished with week 7 of the Running Mate challenge. That means that I've gone from running 2 minutes (and admittedly not liking it) to now running a full 12 minutes (and loving it!)!!! Week 7 has me running three 12 minute intervals with a 3 minute recovery between each run. When I finish, I've covered 3 miles in about 45 minutes!
Next up, well tomorrow, is a full 30 minute run with no recovery breaks! And after that, I'll be ready for my first 5k! So now my search to find a nearby 5k mid-March begins! Here I go!!!!

ReplyDeleteAwesome! I keep telling myself I need to start running again. Unfortunately, the only running that is going on is the thought going through my head. :o)
ReplyDeleteI'm so impressed! Good for you!
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking about giving it a try, once we get a treadmill I'm not afraid to run on or the snow melts... whichever comes first...
ReplyDeleteIrish Jig in EGR is on March 20th. I LOVED this race last year! I'm super bummed I can't do it this year since we'll be on our way home from vacation that day. It's a fun race!
