I realize it’s been a while since I’ve posted a Fitness Friday, but I finally feel like I have something to talk about!
This past Wednesday, I ran 3.1 miles without stopping for the first time EVER! I’ve completed 2 5k races, but I always had to walk a portion of them.
The key this time? I [...]

Well, 5k #2 is officially in the bag. My official time was 35:25…meaning I missed my personal goal by 25 stinkin’ seconds.
TWENTY-FIVE SECONDS!
I was a little disappointed in myself, but hey. What’re you gonna do?
I’m still not entirely sure I consider myself a runner. Case in point: I haven’t run since the race last Saturday. [...]

Things around here are pretty status quo. The 5k is 2 weeks from tomorrow, but I still haven’t been able to put my hands on a course map yet. That makes me a little bit nervous. I’d like to have a chance to drive the course before race day, just so I know what to [...]

I seriously considered not writing a post today.
I haven’t been doing so great (imagine that) and just felt like a big stupid head coming here to tell you that again.
I should change this to Not Doing My Fitness Plan Fridays.
But I’m going to turn that frown upside down. Instead of abandoning, I’m revising.
The 100 pushups [...]

I am in a workout zone. I’m really proud of the way I’ve been following through with what I’ve set up with so far.
While we were in Virginia Beach last week, I took a walk every day. I even did some running while we were there. Jake was like my own little reminder service. All [...]

I have become very goal oriented. I mean, I’ve been making a lot of goals.
Achieving them? That’s a whole nother post.
Anyway…here’s what I have coming up:
Along with Denise and others, I’m participating in the Pushing the Limits 2009 challenge. That’s 100 pushups by July 31st. We’re using the 100 Pushups program. I just did Week [...]

Well, the 5k is over. Now what?
I think I’ll eventually run another 5k, but I’m not entirely sure when. I guess I should find another one, but I’m not sure it’ll happen anytime soon. We’ll see.
On a whim, I went out an bought the EA Sports Active game for the Wii. I did it for [...]

I can’t believe it’s finally here. Nineteen weeks ago, I put it out into the universe that I was going to run a 5k. That’s not the first time I’ve made that claim, it’s just the first time I put it in writing. This is the first time I’ve actually paid the registration fee for [...]

I wonder what it is about exercise that just doesn’t sit well with me.
I don’t want to do it. And because I don’t want to do it, I don’t find the time to do it make the time to do it. If I look at my schedule, there are times I could carve out to [...]

I actually got up this morning at 6:30 to go out for a run. I needed to go out for 2.5 miles, so I had Dave use Map My Run to figure out a course through the neighborhood.
It probably would have been a good idea to actually CHECK the route before I went out [...]
