Woo hoo!! After Saturday's intense workout session, I decided to try a little experiment. My parents live in a wonderful "run/walk-friendly" neighborhood, so I started out on a light jog- just to see how far I could go. The bad news is I'm not ready for any 5K's just yet... the good news is that I didn't quit at the first stop sign! I'm guessing I ran maybe 1/2 mile and walked the other 1 mile of my mini-journey, but this is a big leap for me! I don't like to run AT ALL. But I thought since we were through with 3 weeks of the skinny challenge, let's just see where my endurance is...
So what do we think? Is this good after 3 weeks? Pathetic? I'm not sure myself, but I'm ready to "test" myself often to bump the distance up a bit.

That's awesome, Katy! I'm pretty sure that going from feeling like you were going to pass out on stairs to running a half a mile in three weeks is pretty profound, but hey, that's me.
ReplyDeleteIf you're ever looking for someone to go run/walk/jogging with, I'm your girl. I have been looking for a running partner for some time now.
Coming from a runner: yes, that is totally awesome! When I first starting running I could run one lap around a track which is 1/4 of a mile, so GO YOU!
ReplyDeleteAnd way to tackle something outside the FitCamp realm...that shows true commitment!
