See it and it WILL happen....

Stealing with pride from my friend Libby...I made up a similar training schedule (hers is MUCH prettier and BIGGER), but you get the idea....the bold numbers are the miles I will walk/run each day....3 miles today...4 tomorrow and 3 days of rest each week. I picked Fridays (when both Victor and I are both home) to work on my BIG miles for the week. I figure if I put this up on the bathroom mirror, in front of the treadmill, next to my computer at home and also AT WORK, it'll keep me motivated and NO excuses!

Three BIG goals this year...

1. First up, Vancouver 1/2 marathon on Sunday, June 19th! 13.1 here I come!
   
   
2. August 5-6 - Cascade Lakes Relay...2-3 legs of 3-5 miles (but in the higher desert of central Oregon).
   
   
3. August 26-27 - Portland to Coast Relay...2-3 legs of 3-5 miles.
   

Meet Brooks...

My new walking buddy (aka--my new shoes). Victor & I both went and had our gait analysis done (at Fit Right NW)...we tried on lots of difference shoes, tested them out and both left with a new pair of Brooks shoes! Decided to go ahead and name mine Brooks! :)

Sun was out, it was a bit windy, but wore my sunglasses for my first 3 mile walk...yahoo!! Vancouver 1/2 marathon, here I come!

30 Day Shred -- Day 1...

I've been mentally getting ready for this...I've had four Monday afternoon workouts at the gym at work (for free) with Monica (my trainer)...she's great at making me WORK! But she's only there Monday afternoons for me...SO, insert Jillian.

I don't watch the Biggest Loser very often, but when I have caught parts of it, Jillian definitely makes you push yourself to the limit!

Finally tonight, I put on my workout clothes, turned the DVD on and for 20 minutes I worked my tail off...the whole time Charlotte was on the bed cheering me on..."Go Mommy, you can do it"...every time I started to slow down, she cheered me on.

Day 1 - COMPLETE...stay tuned...
