Sponsorship and Training

Today I offered to change up my sponsorship to Jonathan.
I offered him to sponsor him $.50 per mile,instead of per pound.So if he puts in the mileage for the month,his goal is 30 miles this month.So if he makes that goal I will sponsor him for $15.00 this month.If his mileage is less then What I sponsor him will be less. Then when he gets his mileage up there and maintaining it Make adjustments. { i do not want to go broke} LOl. How does that sound?

Today was day #1 in the gym for me. I waited til frogger jogger was picked for school,and I went to the gym.



TM: hill intervals ,30 minutes, speed 3.4-3.6,heart rate 135-140, 1.70 miles. Then I walked to make up the .30 to make a complete 2.00 miles. Calories burned 196. I made up the two miles that I owed from Sunday.

Elliptical : 30 minutes, total body program,heart rate maintain 135-140, .81 miles,calories burned 135,level 5.

Abdominal : 35 lbs.,3 sets of 25
Abdominal machine: 70 lbs. x100.

Later today I will get out there and walk my 2.00 miles. Yesterday 2.00 miles, 33:28 minutes,I had on the wrong shoes, and my feet let me know too.

The calf muscle is tight,I haven't had any pain now for three days. I do not plan to try any running till next week.

Trip Report

Saturday I am going to get back out there and hit the pavement. I don't think the calf is ready for running yet,so I will walk 2-2.5 miles. I am going to try to do that 4x a week and then try a long one,but I am not sure what day to make my long walk/run.My work schedule varies and I may have to rotate my days.

I didn't like the Pop Century as much as I like the All Stars. Our first night someone was smoking in the bathroom and the smoke was going up in to E's family's room.So we called the desk and they sent someone out from mousekeeping and they brought out a air purifier. Then we had the same thing happen to us in the early AM hours and E found the head Mousekeeper and they came up and did the same for us.Later we had a voice mail saying that they found the problem and corrected it.
Later I found out they they weren't going to honor our $20 gift card for staying longer than 2 days.So I will have to send an E mail to them about that.



Friday morning we went to Animal Kingdom.E's family's first time.When they finally dropped the rope I hobbled over to the Nemo show and I was first in line. I must say that is a must see show.It was really good.
Then we went over to Dinosaur and we met up with JB. From there we all went over to ride the Safari and we all got to ride in the back of the truck and we all had a blast!!! We were leaving our seats every time the truck went over a bump. we all had more fun doing that than watching the ride. The driver even said we were having to much fun in the back. :)


Mount Everest.I can ride that over and over.Need I say more about that one.



We ate at the Flame tree BBQ. we saw the feasible of the Loin King,the jamin jungle parade, traded pins with Cast members. went back to the room and we got ready to go to the MNNSHP.



That was so much fun.That was the first time I had been to that and the same with E and his family. the headless horsemen was so cool!!! The atmosphere and all was just great.Hallo wishes was awesome!!!!! Trick or treating in the MK, that was fun. we saw stitch dressed as Elvis!!!!


We all were so tired but had a lot of fun. Train hard,have fun,stay injury free!!!!

Well back in the grind on Saturday for 1/2M training. E said he will train with me, but he will not run in the race. :( I am not at all happy with that. He was my light at the end of that never ending tunnel of TOT. That means I may or may not be in the race. can I be strong enough to get through without him there pumping me up at the end??? But I can not quit either. I did not quit the TOT. as training goes on, I will decide if I will do this. I know we all are in this together,but you were not there and you did not go through what I did,and that frankly scares me.
We will go and be cheer leaders for the 08 half and I can get in the atmosphere and see how it is going to be,and is it going to be handled better than the TOT.I want to see Lou and then Kate come running through the castle and then meet them back at the finish with everyone else.

I will post my weight on Saturday!
