May 3rd run--Don't be a couch corn chip!!!


I know I have heard that some gals are afraid that we are going too long. Being a trainer, I think it is really important to go at your own pace, but also continue to challenge yourself. The body is, in most cases, able to do so much more that we give it credit for. After all, God did create us to "work in the Garden". Seriously, you can do this girls. Adding one mile every weekend is a good rule of thumb. If you did 2 last week then do three this week. If you did 4 last week, then do 5 this week. Remember, walking is ok!!!!! Just in case you're still uneasy about adding mileage with us we are now going to make sure that every run has options of less mileage. We are all in this together.........be supportive, not competitive!!!! That is always my motto.


Mendy is mapping this weekend's run. It will start at her house. She enjoyed the peacefulness of last weeks run so much that she is "going country" again this week. It is an out and back. You can go 2 miles by stopping at the 1, 4 miles by stopping at the 2, or 6 miles by stopping at the 3. Mendy will mark the miles on the country road with orange spray paint. Here is the map, just click on the link, and print for Saturday http://www.mapmyrun.com/view_route?r=483143952

See you in my driveway at 6:30 a.m. Can't wait!!!!
