I have the privilege of running for Brody Born a Heart Hero!
As many know, February is all about love and hearts and this week is Congenital Heart Defect Awareness week and so Brody has given me a challenge this week for him!
"I challenge you in honor of Congenital Heart Defect Awareness Week (February 7-14, 2015). To add 13 additional miles to whatever your intended workout week would have held.
7 miles for this being the start of CHD Awareness Week!
2 miles for the amount of Open Heart Surgeries I've had so far!
3 miles for the amount of Cardiac Catheterizations I've had so far!
& 1 mile for the one amazing bond I have being paired with you!
13 although to some an unlucky number seems to be how I came about receiving my congenital heart defect (unlucky) as little is known about the cause, and as well there is no cure, as surgery is not a cure, contrary to what many may think... although it does help.
Love Your Heart Warrior,
Brody Born a Heart Hero
I am cheering you on Monica's Miles-A Chubby Girl's Journey to Fit and Fabulous!! You can do this!!! Heart Hugs"
When called to action- what can you do but STEP UP YOUR GAME!!
So... I never actually "plan" my miles. (haha I am a terrible person that way....kinda just go where the mood takes me.....Maybe this will start to change that too!!)
To meet the challenge I am going to do 13 miles more this week than last week!
Last week my totals were:
walking 2 miles
elliptical 20.45 miles
running 2 miles
Total 25.07
So.... this week I need to log a total of miles.
Today I got started on that in a BIG way- I rowed 0.62, ran 1.05, walked 1.45 and biked 6.45. SO.... starting the week with 9.57
This kid is just what I need to keep me motivated and pushing forward as I kick start my training for the races coming up.
I mean ...... Look at him- how can you say no?
