Because I love and miss my friends in NY, N and I have signed up to to the Warrior Dash in PA next August with them. And because we may truly be crazy we may also do the one in MI for practice. So now to begin training, I am not sure where to start! We belong to a nice gym, however personal training is an added fee and one we really don't have the money for. They do have lots of great equipment available, so I just need to figure out what to do and how much. I may fork over the money for at least a few sessions to get an idea. N and I have also discussed taking the TRX class together. I plan on scoping out some sledding hills next week to get some hill running experience. If anyone else has training tips please let me know!
I finally went over 100 miles on my Nike app! I have been using it on the majority of my runs, I realize my average is 2 miles...hopefully by winter my average will be higher. I still have my 10k goal for the fall!
You are doing awesome! I do believe you are a bit crazy but isn't any runner a bit on the nutty side? We go out in the heat, rain and cold just to run until our legs hurt and we can't breathe. Yup, nutty I say! But seriously, you keep me going. I tell myself often, "She's been here and made it through so this is do-able!" and I keep running. Good luck with your Warrior Dash. I say pay for a PT for a month then, once you have an idea of what and how many reps, workout just the two of you. Train hard.......we have a zombie run to do together next year!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I keep telling myself it is mind over matter! As long as my body doesn't give out I will train hard and cross it off my bucket list! And then on to Zombies!
