Tuesday

After 4 days away from the gym, Noah and I went back. We both were on the treadmill for 30 minutes each. I walk 5 minutes/run 5 minutes....and then it slowly goes to walk 5 minutes/run 3 minutes...walk 10 minutes/run 1 minute. Not bad I guess.

A guy stepped up on the treadmill next to Noah and he was running...FAST....from the second he stepped on. He ran like a gazelle. Noah said he did 1 mile in 5 minutes..... I did 2.14 miles in over 30 minutes. GULP.

I really almost died today. Noah had a similar experience of almost dying. I asked him if he ran at all during the 30 minutes and he said 'not at all'


Anyway.....I'm thinking Noah and I should get involved in some 5K's in between our big run. A 5K is 3 miles which isn't all that bad. Our big run is only 6! I think we can do it! I say at least two in between October!?!?!?!

I'm also thinking the Downs should start a group and do the "MUD RUN" in Philly coming up! It looks fun!
