Last Monday I set a goal of 25 km's for the week. And what a week it was!
I work a desk job from 8:30 - 4:30 M-F..which is so horrible and sedentary! I DO love my paycheque, so instead of quitting so I can run my life away I am trying to fit it into my work schedule. Instead of walking to the cafeteria mid-morning for a tea I took to the streets and walked to McDonalds to get one - there and back? 1 km..I get a half hour for lunch, which I take mid afternoon - but I work in a really high traffic area AND beside a highway - so I only get in 3 kms.
That's 4 km's a day I wouldn't have walked - so i'll take it. Did I mention that my walking pace is not much slower than my running pace? I'm a machine.
The weather was perfect - aside from some cold wind - my total for the week was 54 km's, above my goal.
My total for 2012 is now 118 km's & to keep on pace for my yearly goal of 1500 I need to make up 35 km's while maintaining a 4.11 km/day average.
I love running.
Good Job!
ReplyDeleteI love going for a run on my lunch once spring/summer hits. (I get an hour, so it's possible) But it's fantastic that you show the dedication to do what you can with limited time.
"Any mileage is good mileage" is my motto.
Keep it up!
It's amazing how the little things add up..
