I think it's Day 7 but to be honest I'm not so sure. It may…
Half-Marathon Training {Day 2}

This is going to be short. If you don't know the deets, I am signing up for a half-marathon (13.1 miles) and it's less than 2 months away. I've never done anything more than a 5K (3.1 miles), so this is terrifying. And maybe stupid.
Day 2 was easier than Day 1. I just had to do 45 minutes of cross-training, so I did 20 minutes of the bike and 30 minutes of the elliptical, both at the gym. I really felt like taking a nap earlier, but instead I just walked to the gym.
Tomorrow is Day 3 and I have to do a 4 mile walk. I haven't walked more than 3 miles before so it will be a challenge. I need to remember to stretch and wear comfortable socks.
Tuesday, I have to do 6 miles… now THAT scares me.
I read this like you were saying it really fast lmao! You’ll do great tomorrow!!!!
Honestly, I find that putting on some good music on my iPod takes me away from paying attention to how much I’m walking/running. I can barely run a mile without getting winded when I’m focusing on just that, but with my iPod going and music in my ears, I ended up running 4 1/2 miles [jogging/walking parts as well]- at 218 pounds [my heaviest; I’m sitting between 214 and 215 now] and asthmatic. You CAN do it! Don’t give up!
You’ve inspired me to get moving. Keep posting! It’s really encouraging!
