Hate Running?
I did too!
I ran my first timed mile in like 15 minutes. I had to stop three, ok, maybe four times. I HATED running! Today I am training for my first marathon. For those of you not familiar with the marathon thats 26.2 miles. I clocked it one day, thats from the boot camp location in Danville (Los Cerros Middle School) to Treasure Island!
I am still in disbelief!
I actually ran/walked my first race a 5K (3.1 miles) on October 19th of last year, it took me more than 45 minutes and a heavy sweat, but I did it. This marathon I am training for is exactly the same date one year later. October 19th.
Luis Leonardo our CoreQuest running Coach has taught all of us in the group special techniques and skills to accomplish the seemingly most challanging workouts. All of us have improved our personal running skills, our times and our overall outlook on the art of running. (yes, Tim Hill keeps us on track with POSE too!
Our group is actually training for the Rock N Roll half Marathon in October, as of now each of us has improved so much and we have only just finished our Base training program and have this week begun our real training program!
If you have ANY interest in running or in our group, you would be most welcome! We love new members!
Dont worry about being new, that's what Luis is very good at, he will help you every moment of your training, and most of us will do workouts with you!
So, Hate running today because later you can look back and laugh at how badly you hated it while running 10, 12 or 26 miles!
