Bubba's Babe is on the Move
 

My first exercise log. not a diet log or "feeling" journal, just exercise. :)

So far this week, I walked 3 times 45 min each which is about 2 miles. along with the 2 dogs :) I got the website of couch to 5K. I'm going to find a 5K around Christmas to run. to help w/training.

going to start tomorrow. Here's my purposed schedule:

Mon, Thurs, Sat: train for 5K
Tues, Wed, Fri: walk w/dogs
Sun: day off

After I complete my 5K, then next year I want to start strength training. I think that's too much right now, so I'm putting that off until I get into some kind of cardio shape. I know how important strength training is, but Rome wasn't built in a day.

so here I go, with this journal to keep my honest and focused !!
Lori :p

today I started my 5K training !! I kind of screwed up though. I was suppose to walk for 5 min, then run/walk for 20, well I was thinking that the TOTAL was 20. Won't happen again :)

5 min walk ~ 3.3 mph
15 of walking ~3.5 and running ~ 4
5 min cool down

Also am adding abs 1 set incl 10 straight, 10 left side, 10 right side

Did 3 sets of abs

It was good a work out :) even if I didn't read the directions right ;)
