Walk for XT

Walked for 40 min, tried to walk fast, but even tho I thought I was doing a good effort, I tried the talking test and could talk almost complete sentances. I usually try to walk at an even pace, but not too fast , becos I like to enjoy my surroundings. It was nice and breezy today, i actually passed a PYT(pretty,young thing) but she was not actually pushing herself, and that gave me a nice ego boost , which I really need nowadays.

Spent 12 min watching the first part of the Nova Marathon clip(at the top of the home page). GB had told me the day she posted it as to how motivating that clip is, and I never had time before to go over it. Today I watched the first introductary part and am going to finish the rest tonite. So far the thoughts are that if all of these people can do it, so can I.

Had wanted to do weights today, missed that, definately tomorrow. Along with the R/w.
