Another WOW moment with my band

I  just jogged 1 mile without stopping at a nearby park.  I didn't think I could even do a 1/2 mile and I surprised myself.  It was pretty slow, 11 minutes, but OMG, I DID IT!   My DS and DD encouraged me to give it a try and they went with me.  DS was way ahead, but DD stayed with me until the last stretch!

It's just amazing that on Spring Break I climbed to the top of the climbing wall at the climbing gym, and now I just "ran" a mile without stopping.  Sometimes we can do more than we think we can.

thats great... i cant wait till i get going good walking a mile ..lol    just got banded on the 6th wish me luck

I wish you luck on your journey to better health.  I just started out with slow, short, easy walks and slowly progressed.  Walking is a great exercise!

congratulations! Its those seemingly little victories that mean so much!

Thanks!

Time to signup for a 5K!!  :)

Wow, that sounds like a ways off, but it would make a great goal for me. 

You could do it!   If you can jog a whole mile, you can run/walk a 5K.    I'm not up to jogging a mile at a time yet, but I'm doing a 5K today.   I'll run a bit and then walk fast.. then run some more.. over n over.  It will take me probably close to an hour.

If you can jog a mile straight, you're further along than me!

WTG Kristi.  Wow, you are really progressing on so many levels.  And family support and encouragement.  So happy for you!!!
