Week One Continues

Well, things are getting pretty serious. I bought some new walking shoes. I've been walking every night for about 30 minutes. It is DANG COLD out there. I looked up a training schedule online and adjusted it to fit my days off and the fact that we have 16 weeks until the race. My rest days are Wednesday and Sunday...which is great because I have small group on Wednesday nights and of course we all work on Sundays. I am feeling pretty optimistic so far. In less than a week it is already getting easier to cover the same amount of ground.

I've really got some fantastic friends. They have been so encouraging and supportive. It's gonna take a lot of accountability for me to stick to it. However, I am pretty stubborn and usually always finish what I start. I keep thinking how much easier things will be once I am in better shape. I know I will be able to do my job better, which makes me pretty excited.

Anyway, that's my progress this week. I'll keep you posted.
