Good Morning Peeps! I just wanted to let you know that I had a great training session today. I do not call it a run yet because there is definitely more walking than running! I worked out with my friend Kendra. We have partnered up to run our first 5K together. Our last attempt at training together was a complete disaster! One, it started raining on us. I mean it freaking poured. We stopped and turned around and went home. Neither of us has that athlete mentality where you keep going at any cost. Real runners would have kept going! Two, I had run the day before. BIG mistake! I thought I knew better than the program when they said do NOT run consecutive days!
The goal today was to keep up with Kendra and not make a fool of myself. Kendra is 10 years young and a bit leaner than me! I am happy to report that I kept up with her. Now, that's not to say she didn't dummy down her training to make me feel better. If she did, I stay thanks! I'll take the victories any way I can. If not, then woot woot for me! I can hang with the younguns!
I will be taking the next two days off. Then on Friday I will graduate to week 2! I'm scared!!! The running/walking intervals are 60/60. I don't know how that will work!!! I like my 90 second walk intervals!!! Kendra started week 2 last week. She says it is rough. (BTW, she did dummy down for me! She went back to week 1 just for me! OR perhaps she is secretly grateful to me for getting her out of week 2.) Makes one think!
So here's to completing Week 1! It only took a month!!!! Make week 2 go better!
Until next time,
deniserunning?
