Week 6 Day 1

What a run! I have no idea what might be making me so tired! But it needs to stop. For some reason the five minute run was tough. The eight minute one felt as if I was running for 20 minutes. Which in turn made me slow to a walk for about a minute. I… Continue reading Week 6 Day 1

Week 5 day 3

Well today is a 20 minute run! I hope I can run that long! Thinking about it is a little daunting but in the end I will be quite happy with myself. The last couple day’s I have been nursing lower back pain as well as hips and leg pain. I looked online to see… Continue reading Week 5 day 3

Week 5 day 2!

Today’s run was amazing! My girls accompanied me so this made me realize that I need a running partner. My pace is slower and I do not push myself so much. Or maybe I just need them to join me so I do not worry about them while running. My mental thoughts are if I… Continue reading Week 5 day 2!

Week 5 Day 1

Today was the start of week Five Day 1! I went back and forth considering redoing week four but decided to just plow through and start week five. The first five minutes was easy! The second was getting to the point of not wanting to continue. The last five was very difficult! Forget that warm… Continue reading Week 5 Day 1

Let me tell you though it shocked me to no end that I did it anyways. I showed up for myself even though I… Continue reading Week 2 day 3 training/homeschool

So today I did not run or do any type of yoga (should have though) I woke up at 5:30 am but I did not get a restful sleep. Unsure as to why but I can only guess that it may have been due to the fact that I stayed up past my bedtime watching… Continue reading Rest day and homeschool

Week 1 day 3

Well today is a very hot day here in Mississippi! I woke up at around 6am this morning drank a cup of water and went for my run! Let me tell you though I almost talked myself out of it. It is so damn humid out and the air is so thick that it felt… Continue reading Week 1 day 3

Hi all! I just wanted to take a moment and say today is my 2nd day in training (I am not actually training to compete but to handle my stress better). I woke up this morning with an earache/headache and just did not want to run. As 7 o’clock rolled on up i decided what… Continue reading Couch to 5k/10k
