Subject: RE: The Saratoga Palio Melanie Merola O'Donnell MemoriHey, I think you did great! I'm at least as slow as you are... some days much slower! Much much slower. *sigh* Keep up the training and the weight will melt off. It takes a couple of years. I started this whole thing weighing in around 175. I've been at it for 5 years and now I'm down around 160. Still alot of body to move around, but I'm so much more fit and healthy! Give yourself a great big hug! And keep up the good work. Do you incorporate a walk/run? You might want to think about it. I resisted for a LONG time, but honest to God it's the ONLY way I got through my 17 miler yesterday. It's better (for me, at least) to have a scheduled walk break. I've been just taking one when I felt like it. But for longer distances, scheduling is where it's at. You may want to give it a try. Some of us just can't take the pounding of running. But hey, we have our OTHER strengths! I know you're a great swimmer... and pretty hot on the bike too! Congratulations! |
