The last days of summer are approaching

However, the best days for getting outside and running or walking are just beginning!

In Saint Louis, our summer has been blistering hot!  I was greeted with 80 degrees on my 6am runs.

I don’t do well with this hot summer weather so I am excited for fall.  I love watching the changing leaves during my excursions.

Plus, if you are wanting to lose some weight a running and walking plan is the way to go!

So I thought, wouldn’t it be great if I can get some people to join me in some sort of fall challenge.

We don’t have to run together, in fact, I love doing my workouts alone, yet we can still support each other and we don’t even need to live nearby!

So, these are my thoughts:

1. Pick a date: November 7, 2010 it is a Sunday and a perfect time to train and challenge ourselves.

2. Pick your length: 1 mile, 3 mile, 5 mile or 6 mile or whatever you think will stretch you physically.

3. Pick a course: You will need an outdoor course and an indoor alternative.

4. Follow the training program that I am going to outline.

5. Go to http://www.dontbreakthechain.com so we can all be accountable.  (More on that later)

6. Start moving and logging your miles, feelings and thoughts.

Each day I will detail each of the steps in this blog post.  I thought that below the blog posts we can comment on our miles and how we feel.

When you complete the challenge (which I have total faith that you will)  I am going to give you a PRIZE!

So are you ready?  If so leave me a comment below and lets get ready to rumble.

In the meantime, enjoy your Labor Day Weekend.

Hi!

I am so excited to offer this virtual fitness program on this site.  More details to follow.
