Wasn't planning to go to the gym today, but went as may not be able to go tomorrow. Completed 3 miles in 42 mins 15 seconds. Since it's getting cold, I wear a light sweatshirt about 2 pounds over my tshirt to the gym. When I remove the sweatshirt after 10-15 mins, I feel lighter even though the sweatshirt is about 2-3 pounds only. Realized again what a difference even a few pounds can make :(
365 days, 1 year, 2 inactive bored sisters, one thinks any goal is too small for her, the other wants to try everything but is not sure where to start. So Ok, the challenge- run the first full marathon within 365 days. Start date: Nov 1st 2007 End date : Nov 1st 2008. Will we be able to do it??
