Focus

As I've stated many times, one of the best ways to focus on losing weight and/or getting healthy is to set a goal. So, I've decided to take a little of my own advice. I'm presenting myself with a challenge, and I'll need to step up. It's going to be a 12 week goal, and if you're interested, I'd like to invite you to share it with me.

A local hospital is sponsoring a 5k (3.1 mile) run/walk in the middle of May, and I'm going to sign up. I figure it will help shift my thinking away from how miserable winter is, and concentrate on SUMMER. Oh yeah, and it will also get me back on the cardio wagon.


*confession time* I gotta admit, for the last couple of months, I've become a bit of a "slacker" when it comes to cardio. There always seems to be a good excuse to put it off -- sound familiar? ;) This goal will help me stay on track.

If you'd like to join me, either as a walker or runner, I'd be more than happy to help you prepare. We can work it into your existing program, or we can create a new one.
As a walker, you'll be able to get in a good workout while enjoying the fresh spring air. As a runner, a 5k is a great race for a novice -- it's a little over 3 miles, however, there are a few hills in this one, but it's still very do-able with training.

Give it some thought, I'd love to have you there. It's on May 17th, so we'll have plenty of time to prepare with a little under 12 weeks.

If you have any questions, just ask. Also, I have entry forms at the studio.
