I don't normally do a blog post on the weekend but I'm feeling quite proud of myself for getting up and doing a 5k with my husband at 8:00 this morning. Running is still hard but it's getting just a tiny bit easier every day. So far I'm on track for my 15 mile a week goal.
As I was running around my usual course I was thinking about how just a year ago when I lost my job how hard it was to walk the dogs around the block. Back then I couldn't even dream of even walking as far as I RUN now.
This post is to serve as a reminder to myself that while the pounds are coming off slowly, my fitness progress is something to be really proud of. Before I know it, March will be here and I'll be crossing the finish line of that half marathon - come hell or high water :)
Nice! I love how far you've come with your running - and it's so cool that you and your husband are doing this together. You've come a long way, baby! :)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations, Tina, that is incredible. And I'm so glad you have a great supportive husband like I do! Keep up the good work.
ReplyDeleteGreat job! It's amazing the changes a year can bring.
ReplyDeleteHERE HERE!!!! Those miles run are so much more powerful than a pound lost on the scale. WAY TO GO!
ReplyDeleteThe more fit you are the more calories you can burn... you are doing it.. thats awesome.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to you. I recently found your blog after a google search and am looking forward to following your success.
ReplyDeleteAfter a battle of the budlge most of my adult life, I have finally found my groove for getting fit and am loving every minute of it. I come alive in the water. After 2 months of aquafit 6 hrs a week, I recently switched over to laps and cant believe how much I love doing that more. My next goal is to work towards running. I want to be able to job for 5 minutes without needing an oxygen tank. Right now, I would be lucky to last a minute, I think. lol
All the best to you.
Nice work. And you are right... the running will get easier and easier as the time goes on.
