Mondays are great , why you might be asking yourself, well it indicates that the weekend is just around the corner:)
so enjoy your Monday,, begin you list and remember it could be worse, it could be Sunday:)
have a busy day and enjoy it:)
my homework for today:) take a walk/run with a group and write a small paragraph, so here it is for those who are tracking my progress for the NY marathon:)
A beautiful Saturday Morning for a walk, this is my second attempt at participating in a group walk. My first try was not very successful. I arrived to my first walk at 9:00 am, who knew that runners complete their task so fast. My husband and I arrived an hour after it started and it was over, so I did not think that disqualified as my group walk, because my husband and I do not qualify as a group, well if you weigh us maybe, but that would be bad for my ego.
My second attempt was a bit more successful. On Saturday morning November 17 I attended the YMCA walk/run. This event was well-attended and fast pace. I waited for all the fast runners to go first; I am in no way a show off so I did not attempt to show them up. I enjoyed the energy that this walk had everyone was full of smiles and speed. I followed the crowed and ventured into a neighborhood I did not know existed. I was doing well when it came to speed, and I knew that because I was not last. My time for 2 miles was 32 minutes, it was nice that there was someone there telling you how slow you were, wait, I bet they were there for the fast people too. There was also a gentleman on a bicycle who would ride by us and say things like” feel the burn” or “ doesn’t it feel good’ ok so I could of done it without him, because it just made me laugh every time I saw him. I enjoyed this walk very much it reminded me of the volksmarches in Germany we use to take every weekend, back in the day. It really made time fly going on a walk with over 50 people, and being on the phone with my personal trainer, QBF she enable me to overcome my fears and out walk the 105 year old woman, thanks QBF, in no time I had arrived at the finish line, 48 minutes and I had completed the 5k walk, yes even I can do this walk and like it.
