As far as walking is concerned I completed the "Inaugural Portland Marathon Training For Two Blogger 3K Walk." (I told the organizers the title was too long but they wouldn't budge on that one--apparently the trophies were already engraved.) Anyway it was not bad. I have better walks. This one had lousy scenery, the highlight being the dust collecting in the sill of the window nearest my treadmill. On the upside I didn't have to don snow boots.
My immediate goal is simply to make walking a daily habit. I am not too worried about increasing speed or endurance so much as just getting into a schedule routine. Once that is better established I will kick off the training schedule in earnest.
Details:
- Location - Treadmill at mi casa
- Distance - 1.8 mi
- Speed - 3.2 mph
- Incline - 2.0
- Supplemental Flavoring - The movie "Stardust"
