Yesterday, I started my 1/2 marathon training! I decided to get out there and brave the sidewalk next to out apartments. There was plenty of traffic and at every entrance and exit of the other complexes I had to dodge cars. It's funny though, cuz that actually made the time go by faster! Then the last half mile I ran all the way around our complex. I knew there was a nice sized hill there, so I decided to try it. I did not make it all the way up without walking! haha But that's ok, I just need a little practice! :)
I am using a training plan on the website MiCoach by Adidas. I set up the plan according to my race dat of March 27, 2011. It gave me a 21 week training plan to follow. It tells me how many minutes to run instead of miles. I actually like this better since I am used to that with the C25K program. One day down, 21 weeks to go! :)
23 days to my first 5K and Thanksgiving! I am still unsure of where I will be running the 5K (my hometown or my new city). I guess I won't know until the last minute! That will just make it more interesting! :) After that, I plan on running several more 5K's in December and January just for fun! :)
This is the one I will run if I'm in Fort Worth :)
I never wrote a post about my wonderful necklace I got from Amy Cornwell Designs!
I was hoping to get a cute pic of it, but this is about the best I could do....
It says "a runners heart" on the bottom, with a heart stamp in the middle. I love it!
I have already been wearing it around town! :)
Thanks again Amy! :)
Is anyone else planning on running a Turkey Trot?
Have you started decorating for Christmas already? I haven't yet, but really want to!

Christmas? I've barely taken my Halloween stuff down! I think I'll be Turkey trotting here in town...hopefully it won't be pelting ice this year.
ReplyDeleteHaHa, I just put my Thanksgiving stuff out! But I love Christmas! :) I probably won't have to worry about ice here in Texas lol, but I am not used to running in the cold! (50's is cold for us! haha)
