"Number 9..Number 9".. THAT WEEK IS DONE!!

The 4th of July holiday came and went with a "BOOM!!".. The family went to see Spiderman and ate entirely too much! (but not ANY theater popcorn..)


Was it just me or did it feel like 2 Monday's and 2 Friday's last week? All day on the 4th I was thinking it was Saturday!!


Had a great 3mi run on Wednesday and then finished week 9 off with a 5mi jaunt this morning!! Thank goodness it was unusually overcast early today. Great run though...and cooler too!

Week 10 starts on Monday with a 2.5mi run.. Did I mention this is a 24 week training plan? So, I almost half done!!!

Have a great week!

Running again..WEEK 2

The first week of the official "Couch to Half Marathon" training program went well!  Not a shocker considering the mileage was just 6 miles total.

You have to keep in mind though that I am (literally) coming right up from the couch!  So six miles is a big increase in my world right now..   And if you must know, I even broke a sweat!!

To add a level of measurement of progress for me personally, I will be keeping time with RunKeeper (iPhone app) and get out the old bathroom scale to see if there is weight loss in the process.  I'll be keeping you up to date on these areas.. and I'll report what my "official" weight is next week.  Next week I have my annual physical examination..that'll be fun.  (The annual visit always reminds me of Chevy Chase getting his physical in the movie 'Fletch".. "MOON RIVERRRR") 

Week 1 over and done and now I am a few days in to week 2.

FOR NOW THOUGH...I am off and RUNNING!
