Goals

Alright, it's Friday, so I'd better start thinking about next week's goals. I know sometime this month I want to see 191 on the scale. That is the threshold from "obese" to merely "overweight". I can't wait to be overweight again!

This week, I want to run an entire mile without stopping. Right now I run .2, then walk .05 and alternate until the mile is complete. It takes a between 11 and 12 minutes. I think if I run the entire thing, I could get that time under 11, and that would be great! After that, I want to add 1/4 a mile until I'm up to the 5k distance.

I was trying to do the couch to 5k program, but honestly, I felt that it was a bit tedious. I think it's a great plan, but I didn't do well with trying to remember the timing for the day's workout. On John's metroplex days, I'm going to TRY to revisit it for my runs around the block, but I found it next to impossible to work on using a treadmill.

Ok, where was I? Goals:

1. Run an entire mile without stopping to walk.
2. Head toward 191.
3. Drink LOTS of water (a gallon a day).
4. Go for a walk daily with the baby in her stroller.
5. Get a really good upper body and lower body workout in.

What are you all focusing on this week?
