So today I started pre-training in order to be ready for the training schedule we plan on beginning in early Febuary. I walked 2.5 miles and ran 1 mile on the treadmill at 5.5mph...and was exhausted! It definitely made me realize just how much work I'll have to put in to be ready to run 13x further in just 4 months.
Heather and I also plan on eating healthier in order to help our bodies be able to train the most effectively. By limiting fat and getting proper nutrition, it'll go hand in hand with our exercise program. I'm living with my family this year and know that'll make it harder to achieve this goal since my dad often cooks unhealthy (but delicious!) dinners. Tonight's menu was chicken parm with pasta, bread, and salad. I avoided the bread, limited the salad dressing, and ate a reasonable portion size so hopefully it wasn't too bad for me...and I even avoided chocolate chip cookies that were made for dessert!:)
