Training Week 1 Overview

Well week one I told myself to just get through it.  It didn't need to be pretty. No need to break any speed records, haha.  Basically the schedule Joanna and I follow is:

Monday: 3 miles

Tuesday: 3 miles

Wednesday: 4 miles

Thursday: Rest

Friday: 40 minutes of cross training NOT involving legs

Saturday: 6 miles

Sunday: easy paced walk or 30 minutes of easy cross training.

Basically as you go along, the Saturday walks get longer and longer, and the cross training time increases to 60 minutes.  As I looked over our training schedule, it appears that in week 13 we have to complete an 18 mile walk.  Basically that's like walking from our house to Polaris Parkway, haha.  IT WILL HAPPEN!!!  I feel really GOOD so far this week.  Today was rest day so it felt extra good!  Tomorrow I'm gearing up for a 40 minute ab and arm workout and them Saturday we are planning on packing up Ava and walking the Genoa trail from Westerville to Galena.  Exciting!  Pics and more to come!!
