You see I'm not much of a runner, more a walker. I like to take in the sights, if I am running I am just trying not to pass out!
For the first month I am just going to aim for 3 runs per week, gradually increasing my Saturday long run starting with a Sunday fun run of 10kms this week. I needed somewhere to start my training.
Another thing I plan on doing is joining up with a group called NRG - because goodness knows I am awful at motivating myself to both go for a run and go any faster than what feels completely comfortable. So I will start out with them next Tuesday on their slow poke run and then I hope to be able to meet a two very simple running goals that I have set myself:
- Run 10km in under an hour
- Run the City to Surf (14km) in under 90 minutes
I have a 10km race coming up on Sunday that will be a good starting point and hopefully get me moving with my running! I am also going to be sure to incorporate sprints into my weekly workouts, apparently they make you faster?

There are some great tracks around our house that will make for some fun training!
