Step my Walk ;)

Day 3 of our training for our 1/2 marathon :)
Tonights walk was around Boulevard Lake :)
Isn't this just a beautiful view behind Debbie and I :)

Here is the view around the lake.

Gorgeous isn't it :)

There were quite a few people out tonight going for a walk.

I have never thought of myself as competitive, but when someone walking ahead of us, I would tell Debbie…"we can catch up to them and pass them", lol
And we did ;)
I remember doing this a few years ago when I would walk by myself.
Funny as I think this is the only thing I am competitive with.
Here was our route tonight.
We just took a short one tonight. 5.62 km's (3.5 miles)

Here we were before our walk yesterday :)
I don't realize how short I am, until I take these selfies with my friends, teehee.

And here is what we saw on our walk yesterday :)
We walked the pathways and then around the golf course and back.
This cutie just walked past us.
Why did the deer cross the road….to get to the better greens ;)
Get it…we were on a golf course….well I thought it was clever ;)

Debbie and I have been using the app. Map my Walk.
Just as we were to compare stats, my phone died.
I went home to recharge it.
I thought it was funny that it still Mapped my drive, lol.
We walked 10.69 km's (6.64 miles) not the 18.32 km's it states on my stats.

I hope you have a Creative Day :)

Training for a marathon

If you remember last week I had mentioned there was a milestone that I was working on....

I will share it with you today.

I have signed up for a 1/2 marathon. 

My (crazy) friend Debbie suggested I join her in running this marathon in our town. 

And as crazy as I am, I joined right along. 

Debbie was so sweet to reassure me that there will be aid stations along the way, lol

Oh ya, and we get a medal when we cross the finish line :)

A 1/2 marathon is 13.1 miles, or 21 kilometres.

Today was our first day of training. 

We walked 10.87 kg in 1hour and 44 minutes. 

I don't think that is too bad, considering we both have a couple problems with our feet..and our knees, oh ya and back, lol.

On our next one I need to bring a box if Kleenex with me. I still have a bit of my cold and went through all the Kleenex I had with me, lol. 

It isn't until September so we have plenty of time to train. 

I keep thinking of the great scrapbbook layout we can make when we complete this ;). 

Hope you all had a Creative Day :). 

Tracy :)
