From Fat to Triathlete

Forward Motion

October 20, 2011

It’s been a few weeks since my fresh start, and I’ve been pretty good at walking/running every day.  This week I have upped my mileage to 2 miles.  I do the first mile with Marshall and the second with Wrigley.  Saturday is the day to up again to 2.5 miles.  I will probably up the time spent with Wrigs since he will be the one running the 5K with me on Thanksgiving.  Although both of them could run circles around me easily.

I am proud that I have kept it up.  Today my second mile was 3 minutes faster than my first and the fastest it has been since my new beginning the first of October.  And I know it will just keep getting faster.

I’m losing weight too…..and people are noticing.  It’s a great feeling!  Things are moving in the right direction.  I’m disappointed that I won’t be participating in the Ironman next weekend, but on the other hand it  allows us to go to Gayle’s alma matter for alumni weekend where one of her classmates will be inaugurated as President of the college.  It’s a big deal, and I am very glad we will be able to attend.

So, all in all, I’m pleased with my progress and looking forward to what will come in the future.
