It's been a pretty busy week both with training and the family. We are getting the trailer ready for camping this summer, everyone is pretty exited about that. So our trailer is parked at a storage facility and we take it back and forth from the house to the storage yard in between uses. I decided to see what the distance was from our house to the trailer when it is in storage... 11km. So a course I can practise on, walking out to the trailer and back is pretty much a 1/2 marathon. So I figure I can use this to build up to doing the 22km. I have to say thinking about the distance from here to the trailer is a bit overwhelming and I wonder how long it will take me to be able to walk from here to there?!? I'm sure the guy that lives at the storage yard wonders who the crazy lady is cause I swipe my card to open the gate and then I walk/jog to our trailer spot and then after we're done I do the same thing back to the gate. I keep waiting for the guard dog to jump out from somewhere and attack me..lol Hubby says he only comes out at night..lol
So I'm trying to find a watch or something that tracks accurate distance, time, heart rate etc but not sure what to go with. If anyone has any suggestions or has used one they really like and recommends please post.
More good news about the fundraising, I am now at 17%. Thank you so much to everyone who has donated. My goal is to reach 20% by the end of June and please no amount is too small, it's all greatly appreciated.:-)
Hopefully the weather warms up a bit cause snow in June is crazy !!!!
