I'm still planning to run the 5K in Provo next July 4th. I want to know how many people are still planning on running with me. I know I haven't been posting regularly, but that is going to change. I finally hit my first major goal last month. For the first time in over 25 years the scale is under 200 lbs. I started working out on the treadmill at the rec center. I like knowing how fast I am walking. And I started adding some very slow jogging. I have a heart rate monitor to keep track of how high my heart beats. And I can get it up to 170 when I jog for 60 seconds. So I'm only during about 3 intervals jogging. But I am finding out that it is quite the high just to be able to do it at all.
So now I'm doing some serious 5K training. Any of you got some wonderful advice for me? Please share.

I remember when Ruth hit that goal too! It's a good one:) I cannot wait to do this with you - Ben's daughter will get baptized earlier that weekend, but we are planning on running this race with you - you are doing awesome - just keep doin what your doin! :)
ReplyDeleteWhat an accomplishment!!! Give yourself a big pat on the back from me. =)
ReplyDeleteWe're planning on being there. I think the kids want to run too...not sure which ones.
ReplyDeleteWell I was planning on being there...I probably still can...however right now I am not feeling so hot. I have 10 weeks to go before I have this baby, and I had to go in to the hospital last night to get that shot to make the contractions stop, I also have a UTI infection, so I am going to take it easy for now, but let me wait and see how I feel in March after I have this baby.
