Evening group!

We had our first evening class last night. It was alot of fun. Nancy Mackay will be teaching the class every wednesday. Thursday's class will be a mix of who ever would like a turn to show what they know. Other wise I will be leading that class. We do have some latin dance in the works.
Anyone who can bring the big excercise balls, balance balls and hand weights that would be great. We do have some extra of everything just not enough.

Morning group has been under way for a couple of weeks now, Becky Gerber has been leading this group and it has been great as well. She has been doing a combo of arm, abs and leg strength. If anyone would like a chance to lead this group let me know.

I also want to stress this is for everyone, any level of fitness. We will have a leader but you can work at your own level.

Join Us!

The evening group will be starting next week. It will be Wednesday and Thursday at 8:00pm. If anyone would like to lead this group let Katie know.

The morning group has started come check it out, bring your kids, and have a good workout! There is no pressure all level's of fitness are welcome.
This group starts at 9:45am and will be Monday, Wednesday, Friday.

We got the ok for the church building. We are going to start the morning group on Monday at the church at 9:45am. As of right now the morning group will meet every Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 9:45. Katie is planning on watching the kids in the nursery room for the first week and then if we can rotate and take turns that would be great.

We are working on scheduling for the evening group and Katie will let everyone know when we figure that out. There will not be babysitting for the evening group.

Also if anyone would like to take a turn teaching a class either for the morning or evening please let me know.

Remember this is no pressure no matter what level of fitness you are at come and enjoy yourself.

Running, exercise and diet starts and ends in the brain. Train your brain and the rest will follow.

What did you do today?

So Today I ran 6 miles in 63.30 minutes. This is a PR for me. I don't know what changed but I have been hitting this wall for almost a year. I could not go more than 3 miles. I have finally learned that it is more a matter of the mind than it is the body. We can all do amazing things if we put our minds to it.
I have the worst knee pain and I have been using that as an excuse for not pushing myself for the last almost year now. Also my breathing always gets so out of control I have to stop. (but I have learned how to control that)

Set a goal. Mine is 1,000 miles this year.

Yeah!

My goal today was to run for 1 hour with no walking. I did it and I pushed myself to 61 minutes so I could complete 5.50 miles then I walked .50 for a total of 6 miles.
I wish every run started out at mile 3 because after that my legs just went numb.
I could not have walked that far 3 years ago.
