Screamin Knees - 5k Run - Run? I can't even walk!!!!

Hey Everyone, 

Well, yesterday was a cross-train day for 45-60mins.  I didn't want anything jarring since my back was still sore so I decided to swim some laps.  Now keep in mind, me swimming laps is getting half way down the lane and then ended up doing the doggie paddle and kick. Man, I thought I was in shape but just goes to show you that doing new things is awesome as you are  humbled. 

Well, today we are scheduled to run 5 - 400 meter laps.  I know my challenge is just to run the entire way without walking.  Boy, oh boy..I may need more than 6 weeks

Here is the problem, when I got up this morning I could barely walk, must less run  So tonight will be interesting for sure

That being said, LET'S GET GOING

Let me know how it's going, what issues you are running into or what is working for you and remember our quote "OUR MINDS QUIT BEFORE OUR LEGS DO!

Take care,
Kathy

PS....  I tried to get a copy of the schedule on my profile but it wouldn't line up correctly, so email me and I will send a copy to you. 

You Go Kathy!!! Wow, you inspire me!!! I know what you mean about trying new things~muscles will hurt that you never even knew you had, LOL!!! I'm not running b/c at about 1.5yrs out I was running and developed a cyst on my knee so my pcp said no more running for me, fast walking is ok so I did 5miles this morning. Anyway, great job and good luck today!!!!!!

Hi Tracy,

I am not sure if this OLD body is going to let me do this but I am going to try. 

You are also my inspiration as well.

Take care,
Kathy

Go Kathy & Tracy, you ladies are my "Shero's" no running or attempted running for me.  Kathy you said you couldn't walk....I would diffinitely be pulling out the wheel chair!
