Mamavation Monday: Still More Tortoise than Hare

February 25, 2013 By Ashley 2 Comments

Mamavation Monday

It's Monday. Again. Oh weekend where have thou gone?

My weekend was a lot of fun but too short! What is with that? As far as my 5K training is going I am still more tortoise than hare but I am pushing through nonetheless. Finished up week 3 on Saturday and week 4 starts today. Upping the run time from 1:30 to 3 minutes was tough. Now it's going to be 3mins and 5 mins intervals…yikes.

But there is some good news, all this running and booty shaking is paying off. Scale Victory: I lost another 2lbs!!ย  Non-Scale Victory: I'm still drinking my water before each meal and at least 1 glass in the morning before I drink tea or coffee (gasp! yes that has been a hard one!)

My best friend who is training with me wants us to sign up for another 5K in September. I'm a little hesitant because well I'm still not a runner and I still have no love for the sport. But we do want to work our way up to the Disney Princess half-marathon so looks like I will be signing up for another 5K. Although I am getting into the routine of being a runner I still don't ever see myself as a runner or loving to run. I could still take it or leave it but I am determined to get through this 5K with more running than walking!

If I survive this upped running time I will see you here next week…if not, thanks for reading ๐Ÿ˜‰

How are you doing with your goals?

    I have to say that when I did the C25K program, I was amazed how much easier 3 and 5 minutes were for running rather than stopping every 90 seconds. Something about letting myself walk in between was frustrating and bothered me! Good luck!
