Bridge Run Training Week 1
So, we begin our first day of "self created" training for the 2009 Cooper River Bridge Run!
We are following (loosely, as we may not have the actual time to do this exactly and one of us works weekends!) This Program that I found online.
Week 1, Day 1, 30 minute walk:
We chose to walk in the neighborhood today. It's lovely out (warm, breezy weather) and I am home early enough to walk and then fix dinner. Some days we will utilize the treadmill. Our neighborhood has some nice hills in it and flat terrain. My theory is that if I am training to walk over a Large Bridge and through downtown streets (6ish miles) that I need to accustom myself to walking outdoors!
We walked the 3 mile Breast Cancer walk back in October with no issues. *nods*
Feet a bit sore...legs a bit tired...but, very happy we started our plan today!
