5K Win
I walk/jogged a 5K this morning and placed first in my age group! I have a medal even. So exciting…motivation to do more and get fit after a long cold winter.
5K Update
It’s a holiday, so I have time to post more than once, and I am overdue for a 5K post. I have given up and restarted so many many times. I am still working on it though. Now, of course it’s hot but I am trying to get wogs done in the morning. I love…
5K Training – Week 8
There is not much to write. I did a nice long walk with my Perfect Running Partner, then nothing else all week. I have reached my annual 8 week drop out point. It’ is so embarrassing to have to admit it. However, because I have made a public commitment to run a 5K this year,…
5K Training – Week 7
5K Week 7 Ah…feeling much better this week. For one thing, I am back with the Perfect Running Partner (PRP) which makes it all so much more fun. And, out on her ranch I discovered she has the Perfect Running Trails (PRT). We did a meandering stroll of about 2.5 miles yesterday and it was…
5K Training – Week 6
Boy, did I poop out last week. The massage helped but everything still hurt. I managed to stretch out a bit and walk a few times, but that is it! I don’t know what hit me. For a while I obsessed about having Rocky Mountain Tick Fever or Lyme Disease, after finding some ticks on…
My 5K – Muscle Issues
Good Morning, Packing up my mom’s house is a slow and frustrating! There is so much accumulation, that we will only get the basics packed. The movers will get the furniture and boxes out. The rest of the stuff will get hauled off later…someday! In the meantime I have been trying to keep up 5K…
5K Training – Week 5
Week 5 training was odd but fun. I was on the road and camping or staying in a hotel. Therefore, every time was different and interesting. The best day was Monday/Tuesday when I walked and then wogged on nice dirt roads. Ever since the treadmill I have been achy and sore. Still, walking and wogging…
5K Training Week 4
It is hard to believe I finished week 4 already. It is the first real week of training. I was going to start counting weeks all over again, but stuff happens (like snow). Keeping the count going will give me a true idea how long it takes to be fit enough to run a 5K.…
5K Training – Week 3
Sometimes Mother Nature has her own timeline. It is always wise to accept it…never mess with Mother Nature. Translation: I didn’t get much 5K training in, in fact I spent most of my training time indoors being lazy and watching the wonderful snow fall. However, mother nature did pause long enough for my perfect running…
