Original Post / Challenge Description Day 1

Day 2: After I got home from the gym yesterday I started planning my day today and realized...crap, I’ll have to run in the morning. So less than 12 hours after the last run and I ran again. It was fun. I love running outside and I love running in the morning. :)

I don’t know if my feet aren’t used to running like this, or the new shoes, or I need better inserts and socks....but owwww am I blistered. :( Hope it heals some before tomorrow night’s run.

Also I’m still running pretty slowly (I think because of lack of practice and extra weight I’m carrying around). I used to be able to run 5k in 27 minutes. BUT I’ll take the 37 outdoor over the 47 minutes on the treadmill.

Join the run challenge! Start whenever. :)  The official hashtag from the organizer in Harlem is #HR3for30 and the Korra Fitness one is #KFRunfor30

11/30

I haven't posted in a couple days, but I've been keeping up with KFRunFor30 in addition to my regular workouts. Today, I did my mile in 12:50 and it doesn't feel like my max but that's not really what I'm going for right now on the treadmill. But like it feels pretty cool that I feel like I can still keep going faster for most of this mile and still not hit my limit? Like I'm curious about what my fastest treadmill mile is.

Yesterday was a regular workout day so my 4.25 elliptical miles count for KFRunFor30 lol. I felt stressed and self-judgmental yesterday for a bunch of reasons but I hit the resistance machines for the first time in over a month because the free weights area was too full and for most of those machines I leveled up 1 resistance. Those have a max of 12 and for the upper body stuff I'm between 5 and 7 while for the squats I'm at 12 (and they're easier than free weight squats).

Anyway, have a flex pic in Hipster Noir(tm).

Hi, loves! Sorry for the lack of updates. It’s been a weird past few days.

For some reason, my phone’s GPS didn’t work Saturday-Tuesday, so I have no idea how far I ran...but Saturday-Monday I ran 35 minutes, which is about my current 3mi time. So I’m going to count it as 3 miles.

Tuesday the 27th ended up only being a mile because I have a cold and rest was more important. Still, in the last 9 days, that’s 25 miles. That’s more than I’ve ever run in this period of time, ever.

My cold was weird and very sudden. I felt great til about 4pm Sunday, then became very emotional, very tired, and very congested with a sore throat.

But yesterday I reset my phone and it’s working again....and the cold is getting better.

I almost almost feel like the universe is testing me to see if I’ll continue.

But so far, a broken GPS and a cold can’t stop me. :)

I mentioned earlier in this post that I’m attempting to run 3mi every day for 30 days! The goal is to use it as a meditative and mental positivity experience to boost us through the holidays, which can be a stressful or trying time for many. I know I’m going to need it!

So you can set your own running goal! @ryeceps is doing 1mi / day for 30 days. You can do 2 or 10 or .5 mi. You can even do run/walk intervals - the point is the consistency. And start whenever!

I was going to start on Thursday but I went to the gym today and...just went for it.

It was my first workout back after a 16 day break due to my cold...so I was super slow, and walked about 5-8 minutes of it, but I’m super glad that I did it. It felt so good to be back at it!

I’m tracking the day I did it, whether it was inside or outside (In / Out), if I did a gym workout, if I stretched, if I ran the whole thing or did walk/run, and my time. :) Mostly to see if there are any patterns, and to keep me consistent.

Can’t wait to see some awesome running selfies!

KFRunfor30 Day 1

Aayyy

I worked out as usual yesterday (weights + 30 min elliptical) and today I started #KFfor30.

I decided to do my mile on the treadmill and did it in about 14 minutes. I jogged most of that (4.7 mph) and took a walking break half way through bc I got a side split or whatever u call it when that acid drains from ur side. I'm sure that'll lessen the more I do this.

Then I went to the MMA room in my gym and went through all of my Tai Chi forms. I think that'll be my KFRunfor30 workout: the mile and then Tai Chi. That way it feels "worth" going to the gym.

KFRunFor30 Day 5

I did, in fact, do my 1 mile today even though it was super fast cause I had places to be!

And now I gotta go to bed soon but there’s a 5k on New Year’s Day that people from my church always do and now I think I might do it this year for the first time.
