A Day In The Life of m2m :)

Each week, I add a mile to my endurance walk - last week I went 11.49 miles in 2:45.02 (14.32 minutes per mile) So I would imagine I would need an extra 15 minutes to make 12.5 miles.

My daily walks of 5 miles are faster, and I'm hoping to make my endurance walk faster, but right now, I just want to get it up to 13.5 miles each time, and then I'll work at bettering the time.
 
holy crap M2M that is amazing:eek: 12 miles??? I feel like a trooper if i get like 2 or so, you totaly inspire me to kick it up a notch!!!!! keep it up sista...........STAR
 
Thanks star - but I only go that far once a week, and when I started, I could do about 1.5 to 2 miles.

I better post my calories for the day before I forget - I do find it funny - I rarely ever meet my carb minimum, but today after getting *6* servings of fruits and vegies - I did!

CALORIES 1,129 Goal 1410 - 1760
CARBS 180 Goal 159 - 286
FAT 22 Goal 35 - 154
PROTEIN 62 Goal 35 - 154
Sodium 1,348 Goal 1200 - 2400
 
I just got back from my EARLY walk - it was completely dark out.

I got to walk with Orion ;) (Oh, and one coyote)

Total 4 miles 46.2 minutes
Lap 1 Warm up 4.07 .25 mile
Lap 2 Jog/walk 18.38 1.5 mile
Lap 2 walk/jog 19.47 1.5 mile
Lap 4 Warm Down 4.28 .25 mile

(I think I must have hit the wrong buttons in the dark - there was no way I averaged 11.55 minutes a mile - I wasn't going THAT fast!)
 
Way to go on your walk this morning! I always set my alarm to get up at 5 to walk the subdivision, but I always hit the SNOOZE button and never make it :(
 
You know what amazes me? That you find the time to do that! I am truly amazed at your deication! I'm lucky sometimes to get in 30 min. for myself. I feel so busy. It's great you can do that. You're gonna walk all your weight off in no time!!:D
 
So I just mentioned in T2's diary, that my challenge for today was dishing up pizza, cake & ice cream and not having any.

I'm glad THAT's behind me ;)

Megan did an incredible job at her swim meet. She shaved 19 seconds off her 100 yard freestyle and she shaved 8 seconds off her breaststroke. She's been really working hard and it showed.

Afterwards, she went to birthday party at a rock climbing place. My kid, who is afraid of heights, afraid of the THOUGHT of pain was climbing to the top of the walls. It felt like someone switched my child ;) Very cool!

Anyhoo...I'm still eating, I'll post my calories later.

I hope you guys are having a good weekend.

I still don't know when or how I'll get my endurance walk in, but I plan on walking early again tomorrow morning to at least get my 5 before her swim meet.

Y'know, I'll bet you were going that fast! You're one smokin' walker/jogger! :) Congrats to your daughter, and good luck to her for tomorrow. And congrats to you for not giving in to the temptations at the party! Hope your Sunday (including your super-walk!) is fine and dandy.

Mad self control skillz, I wish I would have faired as well. Oh well, tomorrow.
 
Hey there!
Just stopping by to see how it's going. Awesome job at the meet, I know you're super proud of your little one!
 
I just got home from my long walk.

I so did not want to go. I woke up at 5:00 am, have been gone all day, and it was still hot out when I was begrudgingly getting ready for my walk (84 degrees). I was looking for ANY excuse not to go. The first 6 miles I kept talking to myself about going home. I didn't :)

This week's time:
Total 11.50 miles 2:34:10. Or 13.40 minutes per mile

Last week's time:
Total 11.50 miles 2:45.02. Or 14.34 minutes per mile

I shaved 10.92 minutes off the route! I'm glad I went :D

(and WHERE is that champagne T2??)
