So now we're 40 out of 50k done! :) WOO HOO HOO!!
Two more scheduled, and will actually wrap up slightly over 50k.... The Wurst 5-miler is more like 8k, not 5. Looking to keep going into 2016 and possibly do a 10-MILE in April. Wow -
Who'd a thunk it?
And no - I'm not getting any better about training, but I have HIGH hopes for the cooler weather. Cpn Rusty is a GREAT coach, so he's very good about getting me going. Thing is - if I train with him, we have to go at 5am. That's SUPER early for me.... I didn't make it this morning, I had a very restless night, finally fell asleep at about 5am and slept until after 8:30. It's almost 8pm now, so I'm about to turn off the electronics and go work on a paper book study I've signed up for.
So this is a quicky update....

I hope whoever* is reading this is feeling like they can do anything! I'm nobody special, just a regular gal, slightly overweight, middle aged, etc. I didn't even know if I could do this when I got the hare-brained idea about a year ago. But guess what? This BadA$$ finished a Freakin' TEN K this past weekend!!! :)
How to start running:
1) Put on running shoes. 2) Go outside. 3) Run! (Or, in my case, walk very very fast - like you drank too much coffee earlier and still have 2 miles to go!)

*Leave me some comment love, please!!
You crack me up, walk fast as if you drank too much coffee and you still have 2 miles to go! That is funny because that is how you finished on Sat! :) Love you babe! WE will keep going and we will get this done! I am all in for next year! Lets just do as many as we can and see how far we go! We should include all the miles we trained as part of our count!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Honey!! I was hoping to add up all the Garmin totals, but the last few haven't synced right.... I'll have to cross-reference with the MapMyWalk App.
