In terms of fitness, I am working on two goals at this present time:
- losing at least 20lbs for the 8-week "Extreme Brickover" competition at my gym
- training for the Baltimore Women's Classic 5k in June
I am really excited about training for the race. I ran the BWC for the first time in June 2010. It was the first 5K that I ran and it was hard...but I finished in a little over 57 minutes! My goal for this year is to finish around 45 minutes. This week was my first week back to running in a while, and I am doing a 17-minute mile. To meet my time goal, I need to be at a 13/14-minute mile. While it will be a challenge, I am excited to have something other than the scale to focus on.
I would like to get this blog going again as a way to keep me on track. With the semester winding down, I am sure that I will be able to write a post at least once a week. Please stay tuned and follow me on my weigh!
Love that you are doing a blog! You can make your pace. Keep at it! Have you tried using an app like MapMyRun to help you keep track?
ReplyDeleteMJ, you are such an encouragement to me. I really appreciate you! I am going to find that app and use it!
