Alright so the last 100 days didn't go so well, at all. But it's time to start new and it's time to start training for the 5K Foam Fest run that Kathryn and Tansley and I have signed up for in June. Today we started following the sparkpeople 5K Your Way Rookie Training Program. For the first week the plan is to walk for 4 minutes and then jog for 1 and do that 4 times for a total of 20 minutes. But this morning I found that to be too easy. So instead I jogged for 2 minutes and walked for 2 or sometimes only 1:30, but still aimed for 20 minutes total. I think I'll stick with that for this week with an increase of one repetition on Friday. I think I'll likely switch over to the 5K Your Way Running Plan in a week or two because I seem to be farther ahead in my abilities that the Rookie plan, thanks to the workouts I've been doing twice a week at the church for the past 6 months or so.
The girls and I were up early this morning and headed to the track for our first go. The morning was calm and warmish. We were treated to watch the sun rise and it was beautiful. If I hadn't been running, I would have taken the time to take a picture.
