I have a fire under my butt to get this weight off. I am considering getting up early to get a longer work out in. This hasn’t worked very well in the past for me but it is the only time I have to step things up. (Usually, I get dizzy or faint if I don’t eat before exercising first thing in the morning, but I don’t like to eat first thing. I’m not a morning person.) I can’t help feeling that I should be working out for longer periods of time. 30 min is good but it could be better. I will have to brainstorm to make this work.
I looked up how to prepare for a 5K run last night. It seems that in order to run a 5K you have to be able to run at least 2 miles with out stopping before you can attempt a 5K. Well… guess what? I can’t run for 5 minutes let alone 2 miles. It recommends training for 8 weeks prior to the race. I think I should start now. The race is in September and as you all know my father said he didn’t think I would do it. I need to prove that I can, not only to myself, but to my family & friends, too. I am tired of being fat!!!!
Wish me luck!!!
