on your mark, get set.....
WOW, it’s been a while since i’ve visited my own blog! =p soooo much has happened, & i might get to that eventually… just want to do a few quick posts out before i get totally behind…
One of my twitter pals announced she was checking out the #5kin100days running program and her tweet about it caught my attention. I looked into it and signed up too. I am SO not into running, but I figured it was the perfect way to revisit the activity. Fortunately, I have the time now to focus on improving my health & fitness and work on the things my physician has been telling me to do for the past few years. Funny how marriage & prospective mommy-hood changes you. My health gets pushed to the top of the priority list because it isn’t just about me anymore.
I attempted workout (5)1.1 at Kapiolani Park on Tuesday. I used to walk there regularly with the bon dance posse crew & I wanted to see how the workout compared to our previous walks. It went pretty well~ I ended up going 1.5x around the park. Shorter than our usual walks, but with the running component thrown in, it felt like i did more work. Definitely feels do-able and a great start overall: no shin splints, side-pains, or negative side effects. Already, that’s an endorsement for this program. Hopefully, I’ll be as diligent documenting it all as I am sticking to the program! It’s a good thing one of the components of it is reporting back to Brad. I must say, I do appreciate encouragement & feedback from my twitter/fb ohana! <3
