Rained Out

July 30th, 2008 By:5kbie

My first training run was a rain out. I had high hopes of it being another down-pour with clear skies following an hour or so later, but no luck. The rain continued all night. UGH! Just another sign that I need to join a gym.

I’ll attempt again tonight. Not all was lost, since I had to sit inside I was able to read up on my newest toy, the Garmin Forerunner!! Can’t wait to actually put it to use. Woohoo!

Today’s Ambitions

July 29th, 2008 By:5kbie

Well, today is the day I start training. I am hoping to get out later this evening about 8pm. I have strong ambitions of running 2 miles, but we’ll see how it goes. I’m going to go out at lunch to get a watch so that I can track my times. I still have to figure out the distance as I’m not real sure of a course around here that posts miles. Wish me luck. I chuckle as I say that, I’m sure there must be a million “newbies” starting that never get past the first couple of training days. Hopefully I won’t be one of them; I’m usually pretty determined–I’ll keep ya’ll posted.
