Well, here goes... I am officially starting my own blog. I wanted to make some resolutions this year and realized that this "Working It Out" blog would satisfy ALL of my "to do" list.
I started my first walk last week on Thursday. Katy (my coach and work BFF) and I went out on our lunch hour and we walked 3 miles. It was amazing how good I felt when we got back to the office. It was a beautiful day and we just walked and talked. I'm a true beginner when it comes to any sort of exercise routine. Tuesday's and Thursday's will come to be known as the days that will change my life.
Welcome 2011.....Happy New Year!!
Well...I'm off and running (no pun intended) and things are going well. I am walking/jogging 2 times a week and am really feeling good about myself. Katy is encouraging me to push a bit more and we walk and then jog and then I just pant.... lol. She said the average American cannot run for a solid minute. I thought surely it's not that hard? I did it...but noticed how long that minute took. Then she said okay... let's do 1/4 mile and see how that goes. I slapped her (not really). I look so forward to my "walkie talkie" times and feel already that I want to get everyone I know involved in this. Today we talked to the other girls in the office and they "may" join us on our journey. I've signed up for 2 5k's and am considering working on a plan to do a half marathon. Big dreams for a starter and am wondering if this is just the "honeymoon period"...something tells me I am going to really enjoy this and make a habit out of it.
