9 miles down!!

We are two weeks away from the Indy mini!! I am getting anxious! Friday night/ Saturday morning is out ten mile walk. That is it for distance training. My knee is freaking killing me today!! Ugh! It was a good walk though.

Our route

8 miles down

Today we walked eight miles!! We are well on our way to walking the Indy mini!!

Treadmill is my friend!

So tonight I came to the conclusion that the treadmill is my friend. I like walking on it. I somewhat tolerate jogging on it. And I might have put on a little running even last night. I am starting my training for the Indy mini in May. 3.5 miles both nights, last night and tonight. I am proud of myself!!

Measuring time

So two weeks ago when I was super nervous for weigh in, I was down in weight and inches. Tomorrow I know my weight will probably be up. I had my blow off meal tonight. I am swimming in a 24 hour inswimniac challenge tomorrow afternoon until Sunday afternoon. I can't begin to imagine how many calories 4 1/2 hours of swimming will burn!! Wish me luck!!

Weighing in...

I weigh in and get measured tomorrow for the first time in two weeks. Wish me luck!!

Am I nuts?!

So I have been pushing myself to work out more now that swimming is in a two week hiatus. I went to a six am yoga class and two Zumba classes this week. My left ankle is killing me. I am pounding 205 pounds of body down on two little tiny ankles. So I am going to try to add in more swims. I am hoping to swim for like 39 min everyday after school.
Now this is where I think I am going a little insane. I have formed a team: myself and three if my swim team ladies, and we are doing a inswimniac challenge at the valpo Y on march 2. We start swimming at noon as a team and finish on march 3 at noon. One person from your team must be in the water at all times! We have four kids. That is equal to six hours of swimming each!!
I think we need more teammates! ;) I am now actively recruiting people who would be crazy enough to stay up for 36 hours and swim for at least four hours broken down into segments. I am providing the refreshments for my team. It is $45 to join! Let me know!!
