Three weeks ago, I switched my time at the gym from after work..
To before work
I am not a morning person. The thought of waking up at 5 am too get out the door and be at the gym before work was something I never thought I'd do.
Three weeks later, I'm loving it
Arms and abs today!
Getting up early to get to the gym takes a lot of motivation but when there's no road traffic, and you have all the weight to yourself instead of stepping over people to look for them, it's so worth it! Nice 2 mile walk during lunch too!
I'm not the fastest runner
I have a hard time getting out that door at times.
Today I was just going to go for 10k.
That turned into 8 miles
Then 10
Finally I was like"I'm back in my neighborhood so let's go for another 5k (3.1 miles) and see if another 13.1 is possible since hogsbrook half 2 months ago
Mile 11 was rough
Mile 12 was even tougher
I was like "I can get this last mile in, come on!"
It took me 4 hours
I beat my previous 13.1 by 20 minutes
Holy cow!
I'm beat, I'm sore, and I'm proud
2 half marathon distances in 60 days
Not bad at all for me :)
Hey folks! I'm a sysadmin for an msp. I recently took up running at the lovely young age of 40 a couple of years ago and just completed my first half marathon a month ago. Certified in A+, Network+, Security+ and Pentest+. Going after Cysa+ exam in January as well. I'm also a NSFW site writer and I love to stream retro games on my twitch a few nites a week at twitch.tv/speedrunningwithdoolz.
I'm always more than happy to connect with and meet new people!
