I have signed up for Governor Perry’s fit Texas challenge and I am preparing to participate in the Texas Round Up (5K or 10K that is the burning question). My signing up for this after 20 or so years of basically no activity is proof that peer pressure works.
Anyway, yesterday was our first training session with these guys. It was lovely as you can imagine. I also learned something. I learned that there is a website called mapmywalk.com where you can plot any neighborhood walk you take and it will tell you how far you are walking. In the courses that Julie and I sometimes walk around our neighborhood, we have been walking anywhere from just over one and a half to 1.84 miles. Pretty neato mosquito.
My goal is to lose a bit of weight and to be able to run the whole course of either the 5k or 10k by the end of April without walking. What do you think? achievable? pie in the sky? heart attack waiting to happen?
