4 miles today.....

8/1000


Not bad for a normally lazy chick!

Wow...I decided at the end of '09 that I was going to try to walk 1000 in 2010. I never dreamed there would be a big group of people here doing the same (shows how much I know I feel like I've been serving as the Vice President of the Couch Potato Society of America (why only the Vice President? Because I'm too lazy to be President!).

Anyway...I've been off the forum...off of diets...off of exercise. But I got myself a Garmin Forerunner 305 for Christmas...and it makes walking SO FUN. I get to map my routes online, track exact distances, etc. So I have been doing pretty well at getting started (though the recent cold snap in Atlanta has thrown me for a bit of a loop!).

I'm in....so far I'm at 10.38/1000

+16 bike, + 2 run

33/1000

I did a 4 mile walk yesterday and today a kick butt strength class that I will add as 2.5miles.

I had a great day walking today. First I thought I wouldn't get my full walk in as I had to stop before I finished at 3.3 k. But this afternoon my neighbor needed a ride to the medical clinic and while I waited for her I walked outside around the complex and got in another 4.8 k for today's grand total of 8.1.

wow. I havent run in 2 days for no good reason whatsoever.

Since I last posted:

Saturday: 4.03 mile run
Sunday: 0 miles
Monday: 5.01 mile run
Tuesday: 3.76 mile run and 12 miles bike

Still ahead of my 1400 miles run pace bunny, w00t!

I'm sure your next run will brutalize the pavement as you blaze through town!

+ 4 hard miles

11.75/ 1000

13.75/1000 Done

Next week, I am going to start increasing my mileage by 10%. So far my knees are holding out, so we shall see!

9.2 total today. I started out on the treadmill watching the end of last nights biggest loser but was starting to get bored after 2.25. Decided to go run outside. It was 50 so I put on a long sleeve shirt but kept the shorts I already had for the treadmill.

Big mistake. As soon as I got about 2 miles from home the wind picked up to 20-35 miles per hour with some rain. I was freezing and at points was almost being knocked on my butt. I have never said that many swear words while running.
