I Think I Can

I joined Sparkpeople in order to have an easy way to be accountable to myself for achieving my fitness goals. My original specific goal was to finish the Jingle Bell 5k fun run in December, which I did.

Now my goals are to stick with my running, strength training, Pilates and spinning. I want to maintain my weight between 112 and 115 pounds, avoid injury and stay healthy.

My Goals:
My current goal is to improve my 5k time by 10 minutes.

My Program:
When I joined Spark People I had NEVER run before!! I started the Rookie Running Program in September 2011 and I finished it on November 15. WOOHOO!

As part of my training program I walked/ ran the Trick or Treat Virtual 5k Race and I was thrilled that I was able to finish it doing more running than walking.

I finished the 2011 Jingle Bell Run 5k and I actually ran the entire distance. I had never run more than 2 miles without walking before the race so that was a real thrill.

Since the race I have been working on improving my time and my endurance. I do sprint intervals on Monday and Wednesday and long slow distance runs on Saturday.

My current distance PR is 6.2 miles, which I did in a virtual 10k race in October.

My goal is to finish a 5k in under 40 minutes. I am planning to sign up for the Groundhog Jog 5k on February 2d so that will be my first chance to try for that PR in an actual race.

Aw thanks so much for your sweet comments on my blog! Made my day. I feel I am so blessed to be in a job where I really can make a dfference in people's lives. For a brief period between jobs I worked at a call center for Sprint. That was a job I really did not enjoy. Some people I could help but so many just complained about things that were really their own fault, such as going over minutes or data, etc and wanted me to make it go away. And the supervisors were so focused on what we could sell customers. I've worked with senior citizens now since 1995 except for the brief period I worked in that call center. It makes such a huge difference to me to help people who really need help.
Have a great day!

Thanks for stopping by my SP page, and I'm glad you enjoyed the "Pep Talk" - that little guy is just the greatest and I've had to go back and watch him several times. Wishing you a great week! Kathy
