Wow...I have not been very accountable in the last 2 months. I have had 8 softball games, ran 4 times, did a Corporate Sports Challenge, and gone canoeing since I last wrote. I am not very happy with my progress, or lack there of over the last 8 weeks...but here is what I did accomplish in that time:
The 8 softball games were every Tuesday and Thursday for about 4 weeks (through July and the first week into August).
I ran 1.5 miles on July 25th in 16:28. I had been sick for about 2 weeks...but I was still slow on this run. We were on vacation in Ft. Myers, FL...here is my route.
I ran 2 miles on August 11th in 20:40. Not my best, but better than the last run. This was a basic neighborhood run.
I ran 2.01 miles on August 24th in 20:11. Getting better! This was a double neighborhood run.
On August 25th, our department did the United Way Corporate Sports Challenge and we took home the gold! We had to compete in volleyball, basketball shootout, team long jump, tug-of-war, team relay race, and egg toss. We had by far the most points and won first place!
I ran 1.55 miles today, September 1st in 18:49. I seem to be having a problem in the back of my left leg with shooting pain as I run...but I also think the GPS was off by 0.1 miles. I actually ran 1.65 miles in 18:49. Still slow, but better than being 3:49 off of my target pace. I set a goal with map my run to do 12 workouts in the month of September. To go along with that I am going to challenge myself to record each of those workouts here like I used to do. Here is to the next workout and the hope that it pushes me to the next one! Until then...
April
