Ready, Ready, Ready, Ready, Ready to RUN:



It's time to get a move on. I've restrained myself from my 5K workouts long enough. I've done my best to follow the Doctor's orders of eliminating running as a form of exercise for as long as I could (you could mop up the sarcasm that's dripping from my voice just FYI).

But alas, I finally bought running shoes (Last new pair were from Nov 2007-not good on the joints that were already bombarded with extra weight). Plus my husband swears by these heart rate monitors. He says the reason I dislike running is due to ignoring the condition of my heart and the ability to optimize my speed to heart pump ratio. So we found this on Amazon:

And we looked up some races (There's something going on in May but I'm not sure I'll be comfortable with that time frame). Shane already has his Triathlons picked and his bike in the shop. It's going to be an active Summer in the Oldfield house. We have a lot of fun physical activities planned. Wish us luck as we try to find a jogging stroller for a decent price.


p.s. I'm not usually a fan of Nike running shoes-I much prefer New Balance, however, the Nikes were on sale...what can you do.

p.p.s. Anyone else having issues with the Blogger formatting? I can't see what I'm typing

    Check on Amazon for the stroller. That's where I bought my double jogger and I got a really good deal. Plus if you sign up for Amazon Mom (it's free), you get free 2 day shipping.
