I realize that I am having a tough time deciding where to go/what to do, to get myself ready for this 5K. But I do know that I'm toooo slow and still can't run the entire thing. Lots of work to do still. So here's how today went:
5minute warm up walk{3.5mphs}
alternate run and walk for 36 minutes~
1minute runs{5.0mphs} and 1.5 minute walks{3.6mphs}
At a .5 incline
at least 2, possibly 3 of the runs I did for 1.5 minutes
5minute cool down walk
TOTAL TIME=46minutes
TOTAL DISTANCE=3.1miles{5K}
NEW PB!! YAY!!
Now this would ALL be soooo much easier if I had my iPhone with my C25K app running, and my own play list of music!!! Maddy broke her new iPhone Friday, so she has been using my phone. I've been using one of the business phones, which are old school, normal cell phones. I LOVE my iPhone, I miss my iPhone!! I do not know how I lived this long with out one!! I miss having a camera on my phone and Instagram. I miss Instagram the MOST!! Hopefully Maddy's new phone will arrive today and I will be back in business!! The things we do for our children.
Another fat update... This weekend I tried on my shorts, and they were too big!! YAY!! That gave me the courage to dig to the WAY BACK of my "jeans section" of my closet, where I keep those 3 pair of jeans I LOVE but can no longer fit my fat ass into. THEY FIT!!!! WOOOOHOOO!!!
Don't get me wrong, I won't be winning any America Next Top Model contracts anytime soon, but it's progress. And progress is what keeps me going. My progress is sloooooowwww. But I'm getting there. 85 pounds was a lot easier to gain than it is to lose!!! Now to decide, should I just throw out all my too big clothes, or keep them, knowing that after this 5K is over, I may go back to my fat and happy lifestyle. I'm just not sure yet...
PROJECT updates...
theBoys are gonna be gone most of the weekend, to the recording studio, finishing up the new CD. SOooo, Maddy and I have decided to finish the painting project!! We are gonna clean and paint her bedroom and library area. I am hoping we are ambitious enough to finish it all in one weekend!! Then next week I can clean out the messy corner of the garage, that houses a mountain that is considered "my stuff" to clean out!! theBoys are moving very slowly on their music studio room, I think they are holding out hope that I will finish it for them... We need to get ALL of this handled VERY soon, as it's getting warm and new duct work is going to be run for the upstairs, FINALLY!!! YES, we've lived here like 12years now, YES, my husband is a heating contractor, and YES, we are finally getting heat and a/c upstairs!! Tallon is going to be working on recording a band in the studio soon, so MUST FINISH this project NOW!!!
OH, and I'm almost caught up on my Project Life album... NEVER letting myself get this far behind again!!!
So, the craziness continues...
