48 days to race day!!!

sooo today.. i procrastinated.. i napped.. i cooked.. i cleaned.. i surfed.. everything i could to get out of doing the walk/run.... everything i could think of and then lo and behold.. my running partner.. jessica posts... going for a run.... oye!!!! that did it.. self... say to I get ye arse going... you are doing this for health and for a reason.... lol... i did not run as i took the dog with me... but power walked the same distance as I ran 1.36 miles now here is the kicker.... the other day with the run/walk combo.. my pace was 16.3 minutes per mile.... today power walking the same distance...14.52 minutes per mile... now HOW does THAT happen?? I shave a minute and half (give or take) off the pace.. just by walking?? does that have something to do with building up endurance or what??? not sure... but will tell you that  i feel better after having done it..... and should not procrastinate so long.... oh and the dog.. well she better shape up or she doesnt get to go anymore...pulling and crankin... not good for the pace... but by the end of  the power walk she was draggin but and did whatever i wanted... hahaha.. the excercise is good for her too....

so the countdown begins.. April is at the end of the month and May 14th will be here before you know it. 48 days to race day!!! Bring on the 5 k!!
