Day One... training for the Butte to Butte

I have been putting this off! But I really want to run in the Butte to Butte this year. I have wanted to do this since I lived there growing up…but I always chose to do other things…things that made my body more sedentary and less active.

But No More!

This is the year that I will get ready and run it!

So we are starting from square one.
Treadmill workout:
2 miles
244 calories
33 minutes
¼ mile walking at 3.5
¼ mile running at 4.0
¼ mile walking at 3.0 for half & 3.5 for half
¼ mile running at 4.2
¼ mile walking at 3.0 for half & 3.5 for half
¼ mile running at 4.2
¼ mile walking at 3.0 for half & 3.5 for half
The last ¼ mile I ran at 4.0 for only half the time and walked the rest

So there we are.

  1. Woo-Hoo! Way to go! You are detailed!!!! I like the 1/4 mile walking and 1/4 mile running combination. You may want more 'warm-up time' walking. Maybe walk for a good 8-10 minutes before you start to run. And great job finishing walking. Always a good habit to cool down.

    What is the date of the Butte to Butte?????? July 4th weekend right?
