Pre-Turkey Workout Wednesday
Todays workout:
I started the couch 2 5k program again today. The first time I did it, I was only able to muster 4mph running and 3 mph walking. Today on my restart I was doing the running portion at 6mph and the walking at 3.5. I guess I have made some improvement. I could have never run at 6mph before. I guess the improvements are small and not always noticeable.
After the run, I did 30 minutes on the stationary bike.
Today was the first day in a long time that I broke a good sweat. While it isn't where I want to be, it is an improvement.
Thanks for all the ideas and support.

The first time you do something - It's going to be a personal record!
Another hour on the elliptical this morning.
Hoping to start the strength trining twice a week next week.
Thanks for the welcome everyone. This is helpful and encouraging to read what everyone else is up to. I had been faithfully posting on another site but after a couple of weeks of nobody but me posting, it wasn't very helpful.
Have a happy and successful Thankgiving everyone!

Tonight, I joined the local running club for a fun run to kick off the Christmas lights display in our community. For me, it was a slow 2.5 miles, but I was just thankful to be out on the pavement again. The hip held, but towards the end of the run, it reminded me why I have to continue to build slowly.
Have a Happy Thanksgiving!
