Craziness or brilliance?

Posted by Sarah at Tuesday, July 28, 2009
I'm really getting serious about my working-out, exercising, losing-this-baby-weight business. I've been walking about 3 miles each morning and watching -- but not obsessing -- about my diet.

But, today Jennifer Lopez was on Rachael Ray talking about doing a triathlon after the birth of her twins (triathlon?! twins?! Are you crazy?). I thought: Well, triathlon, forget it! But, I could do a smaller race.

Now, let me be very clear here: I have never done such a thing before and the longest I've ever regularly gone to the gym has to be, probably, a week. But, here's a challenge and something new I've never tried before. I'm kind of pumping myself up for it, but I'm a little nervous.

What do you guys think? I think I've made it pretty clear that I do not particularly like working out, but it might be fun to do something totally different and I would have a goal in mind. Plus, this particular 5K is at Disney! Running friends and friends-who-like-working-out, what do you think? Is this craziness or brilliance?

Do it! I'm thinking about running one in late August ... and I did my first run last night. It felt great.

You girls are crazy ... but no doubt in better shape than I. More power to you.

Just Do It, Sarah!! The 5K is a great distance. I have done hundreds of them. You can run and walk the distance and still do well. Its a great goal. Let me know if you have any training questions..
