I ran 3.1 miles in just under 54 minutes the other day. It was my first 5k (on my own). I walked about half a mile total. The third mile felt SO good! I know 54 minutes is really slow but I'd like the haters to remember that I am carrying around 60-80 extra pounds over my healthy weight. I fully expect to be running faster 5ks as the year progresses and my weight drops and my endurance builds.
I signed up for the Disneyland 10k in August! Going with my best friend and I am so excited. Feb 2015 is the Princess Half and I will begin to train for it in the fall.
My first 5k EVER is in 6 days. I'm so stinking excited. I want to run it in 50 minutes or less. With my marathoner bestie by my side I know I can do it!
I can now do 15 push-ups consecutively. I still modify with knees but I'm working on it!
I've been reading the book "Made to Crave" and it's really been eye opening to realizing that this journey is highly spiritual. It's equipping me in new and transforming ways.
In January I lost 8 pounds! I gained some over the holidays, but I now claim victory over that struggle!
Fight on friends!
