What I was doing..........................WRONG!!!!!!

Great title huh? NOT! More on that in a minute!

So the 5K went great! Nice, cool morning! Sitters worked out nicely for the kiddos so that I could go! Alison and I got to ride together, so yay for some girl time, the race started at the bottom of a hill!
We walked most of the race! We got to catch up on girl time, which is super rare for me!

I'm disappointed I didn't run anymore then I did, but there is always next year! :)

So I FINALLY figured out what I THINK I'm doing wrong, when it comes to running! I've been training around 10-11 weeks and I thought by now I would be jogging the entire 5K, which I'm a far cry from.
The longest I have jogged without stopping is 1.5 miles, which is great for me, but I thought I would have worked up to a longer distance by now!

So my new method is going to be to stay on the treadmill for 3 miles, 20 days a month! Normally I would run my 1.0-1.5 miles then get off and do weights, or bike or the elliptical! So now I will stay on the bike until it reaches 3 miles and jog as much of that as possible, until I build up my endurance!

Oh the race shirts were cool, they are long sleeve which was nice! I was able to buy an extra for the hubs which was nice!

I'm looking forward to signing up for that race again next year!

Next up is the Black Cat, then the Biggest Loser 5K also! I'm excited for sure!

My work is hosting a Biggest Loser Contest again this fall, last fall I won 3rd place, so not bad, I'm down 30 lbs from my heaviest already, but I'm hoping to lose 25-30 more! Wish me luck, the winners get money, and free trips to Ky Parks! Very exciting for sure!

I'm weighing in on Friday of this week, I will be sure to post my results!
