Wonderful walk

What a beautiful weekend! A wee bit hot on Saturday... but so nice to be enjoying spring!!

Saturday was the day that I got to walk 9 miles with my friend. Well, 8.75 according to the Nike +. It was actually a lot easier to walk with someone. Good conversation made the time go by. Plus I wasn't listening to my music... perhaps listening to my running playlist is part of my urge to run. It was still a little hard to see others out running... especially one young petite thing that appeared more pregnant than me. But then I'm not as petite or young as her so I would guess her body can take more than mine.

The distance was almost easy. Our pace was a little slower than I'm hoping for the 1/2 marathon, but that hope may change when another month adds more preggo weight to me. If not I think pushing the pace will be easier on race day. My feet felt fine, even where the blisters are healing. Legs were a little tired by the end. And today my left calf is pretty tight. I'd say it was a very successful walk.

Today I just got in a mile walk. Hardly a workout, but something. Most workdays I'm doing two miles now. And trying to do another 2 in the evenings. Building those base miles in seems to help.

Now if I could just find some motivation to work my arms a little...
