Day 5

Hello! It was a beautiful morning today. The sun was shining and it was cool! Thank goodness that humidity is gone.

Well today I set the GPS and used RunKeeper to see what I had done. It was a little deflating. I was moving for 12 minutes (from car back to car) and it was only .68 miles. How the hell am I going to do 3+ miles on Thankgiving!

I just need to get to the end, I don't need to be the fastest or kill myself doing it, I just need to get out there!!!

Day 4

I got up this morning (got my free coffee on the way) and got the park on this rainy day. When I got there I saw another person and not wanting to cross paths, because I didn't want to say hi, I started out jogging instead of running.

I basically just said, screw it, lets jog and see how far I can get. Well I made it all the way around! Then I walked a bit (caught my breath) then jogged a bit more, got a cramp and then walked the rest and back to the car. I was quite proud of myself!

56 Days until my first 5k!

Day 3

I didn't get up again, I slept terribly last night. I either have alleries that Claritin won't touch or a cold. But I have already told Dave that I'm getting up tomorrow so I will.

Also, there is free coffee at 7 eleven, so that will be an big motivation!

Day 2

I suck, I didn't get up today, on day 2! Crazy was wake for an hour in the middle of the night. Then I had to drop him off with a friend to go to a funeral. It was for a baby, I can't imagine their pain.

I will do something tomorrow!

Day 1

Today I got up at 7:15. I didn't sleep well, I'm getting a cold. I got to the park, it's called Diamonds in the Pines and began walking. There is a loop around a big football/soccer/anything you could think of field. I wasn't the only one out, there was another couple who were walking.
Anyway, I started by walking. I walked the long ends and jogged the short ends, and I went around twice. It took be about 12 minutes.  I feel good. Didn't take me to long to recover so I'm happy about that. I think I will do the same pattern for about a week, then switch to jogging the long ends and walking the short ends.

I am doing a 5k on Thanksgiving Day. I've been planning to do it since last year when Dave (my husband) and Mary (my sister) did it.

Weight: 300.2 lbs

Today is the day!

Ok, Monday is actually the day but today I am starting this.

Here is the plan:

Don't hold anything back on this blog.
Exercise in the morning.
Advertise my weight weekly.
Eat well.
Let myself ramble and "get it out", I think this will help.
