I am going to run a 5k on March 27th. Stop laughing! I am serious.
For those of you who don't know a 5k is a 3 mile race. Now this would be easy if you were in shape, but I'm not. Here is my stats:
For those of you who don't know a 5k is a 3 mile race. Now this would be easy if you were in shape, but I'm not. Here is my stats:
Height: 6ft
Weight: 240 lbs
BMI: 35
As you can see, I am not exactly ready for the Olympics. The last time I ran was when the ice-cream truck was going down the street, so this is going to be a challenge. I only have about 60 days to train.
I am ready for a life-change and the first goal is to simply complete the 5k. This means I will need to exercise and eat right. I have been doing Weight Watchers Online & have already lost 15 lbs (Hooray!), but I need to drop at least 60 more pounds.
So the plan is to train every other day on the treadmill using this plan: coolrunnings & to eat healthy food. I'll be tracking my progress for the next 60 days, so feel free to offer your advice & prayers!
Hey darling, I am so proud of you and I love you very much. I hope through this blog you can show the world that, although you are a pastor, you have to lean on the everlasting arms of God for strength. : )
ReplyDeleteHOLY COW! You and Aubrey are so awesome! Ya'll rock. :) I'm so glad you have blogs. Just don't tell ANYONE in our family or you will never get a minute of peace. TRUST ME.

Love,
Amber, your big (well, little since you listed your height and weight...lol) sister
