1 mi walk
Nice 1 mi walk with co-workers. Pretty hot out but there is a nice breeze that keeps you a little cooled off. I am hoping that it stays like this, just a breeze and no wind, so that I can run tonight after it cools off a bit. Looking forward to tonights run.

2 mi jog/walk intervals
I think this is my best mile time yet, I believe an improvement of 1 whole minute per mile!! However, I would not have been able to keep up that pace for the 6 miles I did last Thursday. The 6 miles I did last Thursday were on a treadmill and I swear [...]

My first 6 mile jog/walk interval
Yipee!! I am up to six miles now!! A 16 minute mile is almost 2 minutes above my usual but I did go almost 2 miles longer than my last greatest distance…so it’s all good!! I noticed my lungs are way more conditioned than when I started 2 months ago (I thought I [...]

More of a leisure swim
Swam with a friend today and it ended up being much more leisurely as we chatted the whole time. Still got some laps in and tried out the flippers and boards, those were pretty fun.
When I got outside to go home I saw that the weather had changed to very windy. So I [...]

Swim
Very nice swim today. Swam 200 more yards in the same amount of time. Same as yesterday - different strokes alternating, no freestyle…next week I hope to start that.
Note to self: adjust new goggles as I look like I may get two black eyes…lol.

I love to swim!!
Started swimming again today, but for training not for lazin’ around. Either way I love to swim, I must have been a fish in a former life…although I definitely need to work on the technique because I don’t swim like one. It was still fun though. My shoulders are very tired, [...]

Feelin’ it in my buns and thighs!!!
Today I decided to take out my bike and dust it off and fill up the flattening tires. I haven’t ridden my bike since last summer, and that was for meandering around the neighborhood, but I did think that 5 miles would be a breeze…lol. I will admit it was a bit difficult [...]

3 mi jog/walk intervals
Completed 3 mi jog/walk intervals and stretching. Knee is pretty sore but after stretching it out it feels better and I will also ice it tonight. Nice and warm weather with cool breeze, first time I have been able to run without a jacket/coat so that was nice. This is also the [...]

4 mile jog/walk intervals…getting better
Boy do I feel all the missed runs for the last two weeks…but I pushed through and completed four miles. This may seem like an easy run for many but this was I think a great accomplishment for me. Last time I did four miles of jog/walk intervals (at the end of March) [...]
