Over the next few weeks I will be tracking my progress here. I have never entered a race or even ran any sort of distance before so I would love the support anyone has to offer. It should be an interesting few weeks.
Day 1
I woke up at 6 am, not on purpose but because my youngest decided it would be a great time to want breakfast. HA. Well Im up so on goes the sweats and sneaks. I have Lenny Kravits and Kid Rock to keep me company. Not sure if my play list from these artist were the best choice but it got me doing some much needed thinking. As I turning the corner at the end of my road I started a light jog. Thinking this wasn't so bad I picked up the speed a little. Yup, thats about when it quickly hit me that I'm completely out of breath and about to pass out. Oh yea and did I mention I am still only about 1/2 mile from where I started. After I caught my breath I decided to alternate jogging and walking just so I could get through my planned out loop. Once I reached the homestead still out of breath but excited to have reached the end, my husband was so nice to let me know that my loop was only about 1.5 miles. WHAT! And I have to run 3.5 miles in 2 weeks?! Oh boy! Not sure how I am going to do this!
