This morning, I threw out my training program and just RAN! I was suppose to walk for 1 minute and run for 5 for a total workout of 36 minutes this week. I still worked out for 36 today but I didn’t stop! I just ran and ran!! I’m really glad that I finally got to this point.
It sure wasn’t easy though. For the first 15 minutes of my run, it was hard and I was huffing and puffing. I just had to stop running for a minute to catch my breath. I then walked for 1 minute and then started back up again. I was very surprised at how easy it was after that to run. I ran for the rest of the time! This morning I think I ran a little under 3 miles. I’m not 100% how many miles I did because my tracker that I’m using is NOT accurate. Troy bought me an IPOD Nano a couple of years ago and he bought the Nike+ to go along with it. You have to insert a little sensor in your shoe and it tracks your time, pace, and miles. I don’t know what the matter with it is but it is NOT right! It tells me that I ran over 4 miles today and that my pace is about 8 miles per minute. I think I’m running about 12 miles per minute.
Now, one other thing that I’m struggling with… MUSIC!! I really need a great playlist with great upbeat music!! Here are some of my favorite songs to workout with…
- Funkytown!
- Life is a Highway by Rascal Flatts
- I Will… by SheDaisy
Those are just a few to name. What is YOUR favorite workout song?? I need serious help with a playlist!!!
