Instead of doing a run today, I decided to incorporate some strength training exercises into my day. I downloaded the Nike Training Club app which allows me to have strength training moves at my fingertips. It also allows me the opportunity to start small and work my way into strength training. I truly believe strength traininging has added to my running speed and endurance. Lately I have been doing my strength training workouts in the backyard with my kettleball while my boys are swimming. They get to do a fun activity while I am doing a fun activity. A win-win situation.
As of today, another friend will be running the CIM with me. Sheila's husband Aaron. Neither of them have run a marathong, but I know they will be awesome. They are great athletes, and they very supportive and encouraging. Our goals are different for this race, and I know in the end we will all achieve them. I am so excited they are joining me!!
