I know I'm late to the party...but I'm joining in now.

We have a trip planned for next year, leaving on July 8, 2012. I have 1050 miles to get to WDW and 41 weeks to do it. I just figured out I need to average 25.6 miles/wk....totally doable :woohoo

As an additional incentive, I've also set a goal to train for the 5k at Epcot in January.

Wish me luck!!

That's awesome!

believenfaith · 09-20-2011, 07:51 PM

I walked/ran the 5k distance distance today...3.29 mi at a 17:30/mi pace. Working to get down to a 15min/mi so as not to embarrass myself if I go to the disney 5k in Jan

3 miles down.....1047 to go

suzysharp · 09-21-2011, 04:10 PM

Week 4... not quite as strong as last week but still decent...

130.81/1129 = 11.6%

Working on increasing my speed/intervals today is was 2.25 miles in 44 min which is 19.55 min miles... I really need to step that up b4 the tink!

Got sick for four days and then got called home due to weird circumstances the kids couldn't handled while I was trying to get back on track today... but I am sure gonna add the bit that I did walk.

biking to Williamsburg : 80.12/389

walking to Disney: 57.615/984

BTW, anyone have experience to know, after a colonoscopy, will I need more than a day to recover? or will it be like a nothing thing to go through?

I've never had a colonoscopy but I'm a RN. One day will probably be fine as long as that procedure is all that they perform (no biopsies, treatments, etc.) Just be sure to follow your doctor's discharge instructions and you should be fine. BTW, your doing a great job on the biking/walking.

I did not do any walking today, but I had my medical procedure this morning and accept for not being allowed to drive and possibly being loopy enough from the anesthesia to have messed up my ongoing online scrabble games I have with a few friends, all is well. *big cheesy grin*

suzysharp · 09-29-2011, 04:22 PM
