Day 16 of the 5k Training

I’ve been really good keeping with the 5k training schedule since we started doing it 2 weeks ago. Everyday; sometimes running even on a designated rest day. Well, I was really good… Today was a running day and we skipped the running. In our defense, I have to say that it was for a really good reason (despite our kin in Texas laughing at us) – the temperature was a crazy 96 degrees and the Heat Index was over 100 degrees. It didn’t feel a whole lot cooler when I opened the back door around 9pm… Yeesh!!

I have to say that I might actually begin to like running, but it’s still a very distant last place from swimming and biking… It is free though (no membership required and no crazy startup costs). And this training program really isn’t bad. It’s actually pretty good. I mean, come on, I’m doing it! I’m actually running! So here’s my encouragement to all fellow non-runners: If I can do it, so can you!

In the words of Nike,

"Just Do It"

(And in my words, “Make sure you take your XS Energy Drinks, Nutrilite Rhodiola, Nutrilite Double X, etc.”)
