Saturday - Now

The meeting Saturday was incredible! I saw a few people that I knew, met several new people, and discovered the Monster Energy drink and BioFreeze! I like the Monster for the early mornings!!!!!!! I XT trained Sunday with Pilates, and last night, my 11-year old son went walking (so he thought) with me! Either he needs to run more, or his mom is in pretty good shape! I will contend it is the latter of the two! He is too funny--he kept telling me before we left that he would try to not walk too fast, so that I could keep up with him! The last half of the walk, we did the 3/1 interval. That really did him in. I told him this was going to be his Spring Training for baseball! He just had no idea how much the past few weeks alone has helped his Mama. I had some really sad news this morning. My aunt in Pensacola passed away this morning. She lived a long, great life, but it hurts never the less. Depending on when the funeral is, I may or may not be at Saturday's meeting, but I will get my wog in. Please pray for my mother (it was her sister) and my family for healing.

Well marathoners, blog and wog on!!!!!!!

Oh What a Beautiful Afternoon

I did my wog this afternoon, and the weather was simply gorgeous! I can't tell you how great it felt to get out there and just enjoy the sunshine and the cool breeze. It really energizes me to work towards meeting this incredible goal with so many incredible people! I have been really trying to focus on one day at a time, one mile at a time. I have to continue to tell myself that, or I will impatiently start to do crazy stuff that result in injuries!!!!! This process of "training" is also allowing me to enjoy exercising instead of dreading it. It's funny that your changed association with the same event can totally change your entire perspective. I really enjoy reading the other blogs, and I get so much motivation from them. What a great way to train for a marathon!

First LSD

Well, my LSD was a 1.5 mile walk. Either at the end of this week or the beginning of next week, I will start consistently wogging. I have been pretty good about doing my stretches, but I was a little sore the other day. This year, I am really focused on listening to my body and do a lot of injury-prevention. I have been feeling great, and the more I do, the more motivated I become. The weather is cool and beautiful, and it makes it really easy to get out there and enjoy the fresh air.

Off Yesterday; On Today

Well, I did not get my workout in yesterday, so my off day ended up being a day early. I just got back from the gym, and I did my wog on the treadmill. I will miss the meeting tomorrow because I am coaching my son's basketball team, and we have team pics @10:00 and a game 11:00! I'll get my wog in before basketball. Enjoy!
