I have been working hard to better my 5k time every Friday. I try to workout doing weights and a little running during the week and then on Friday I run a 5K on the treadmill. I got a little discouraged last week because my time was terrible and I kept getting shin splints when I ran. Still I continued on and these are my results:

Weekly Update
Decided for various reasons not to try a 5K yesterday. My goal has been to complete a 5K every week. I began last week and I thought I did OK. Somewhere in the neighborhood of 47 min. I don't remember completely. That all changed.
I’ve Tried It, It Doesn’t Work
I was reading another of a long list of motivational writings and it said the same things - If you want to be happy and successful do these things.
So Close
It was a bit unusual for me this week. It was 10 pm and I had not been to the gym, so I decided to go. I have not been that late and there really wasn't anyone there. I have had the goal of running a 5k in 45 min on the treadmill and so far have not reached it. I decided to give it a go on Wed.
Have We Forgotten How to Feel?
I try my best not to watch the news, not to get caught up in the non-sense of the day - and believe me, it is all non-sense. The news is simply meant to make you feel scared, depressed, and helpless; to cause contention; and to sell your depression for a price.
My 5K Journey
On Saturday, I decided to take my workout up a notch. I decided to try a 5k on the treadmill and aim for 45 min. This meant I had to average 4 MPH, which is a fast walk or jog.
That Time I Drowned in the River
Call this experience what you will, but I can have no doubt that there is a God and that He is there for us.
Getting Ahead of Myself
I was feeling really good on Tuesday, like super good, so I decided when we went to the gym that I wanted to try to complete a 5k on the treadmill. When we go on our cardio days I typically walk at 3 mph for 45 - 50 min. This is enough to get the blood moving, and with the ups and downs of the treadmill it gives me a decent workout for a beginner.
Network Marketing
I do a really poor job of network marketing. Kyani is a great company with great products and I need to promote it better. I put a "Store" link at the top of this page and to the side under the "Triangle of Health" if you think it is right for you.
