MARATHON!!!

Hey!

SO last week I struck up an idea to begin training for the ING NYC Marathon. This is huge for me! 26 miles! I already have friends betting against my finish!

My friend Sam is going to train me. He has already set me on the right track with plan and training schedule. I also have the Fitday food log. Here is the link so you guys can see what I'm eating: http://www.fitday.com/WebFit/PublicJournals.html?Owner=jacquida

Today I did 2 miles on the treadmill in 25 minutes. In the morning Iam going to do 2 or 3 miles around the cemetery. I think it's called the Holy Cross Cemetery. It's about 1 mile around. Tomorrow, I am running around it three times. By the end of the month (June) I will be running around it at least 10 times a day.

Currently, 4.5-5 mph is comfortable. Running 5.5 mph tends to get me tired...not out of breathe!!! I can run 5.5 mph for up to 1.5 miles straight. I was thinking a goal of 6-8 mph would be great for the marathon. My goal time for the marathon is 5 hours. The best runners do it in 2-3 hours....so 5 is good.


Think about how thin I will be at the end of all this....and just a few steps away from my pack!!!!!!

Got Me Working Working Day and Night!!!



The audio clip on this page is currently a Michael Jackson song that I love listening to before I hit a workout!!!

Today I worked out at Bally's on Tilden this afternoon. I hadn't had anything to eat and I was feeling dizzy after 45 minutes of the elyptical machine. Not to mention the additional 25 minutes or 5 mph jogging. That Nutrament energy shake was not even enough. Especially since I it at 12:30 and didn't eat until 5:30.

Hey everybody!

In this day and age there is no room for shortcomings. I have been trying to get those killer abs for a while now. The only problem is that I TRY and really I just need to DO IT.

My goals are to cut down my fat percentage, my pound and develop my abs and MAKE THEM SHOW!!!! That is the most important part....they need to show. Right now...I'm sportin' muffin top!!! LOL!

When I get the exact number I will inform you all but right now...My estimate is about 175lbs and somewhere in the 27% fat range. My height is 5' 1/2". I am a size 11.

I will be posting here from time to time and want to extend you all the opportunity to check in with helpful information. As well as information about anything else on your mind. It doesn't all have to be about working out and nutrition. SO here I go....

I am glad you had the opportunity to read the first posting of my blog.

Stay Current and Keep in Touch Y'all!!!!
