Training Day 7
Another beautiful evening for a run. Sherri was determined this time out to complete the 2.0 miles without stopping and that she did do! She admits that running by herself is not as fun as running with Steve.
Today's run was completed in 20 minutes 22 seconds; which by the way, beats Tuesdays time by 36 seconds. This of course begs the question, does Sherri walk faster than she runs? (The things that make us go hmmm.)
Saturday is another training day, so we will get another time and see what is really going on.
Steve has said to Sherri on numerous occasions: RUNNING BURNS CALORIES. So today, Sherri decided to find out how many calories she actually burned. After she located a calorie counter online, she entered in her information, and boy was she amazed to find out that she did indeed burn calories. 207 calories to be exact!! Yeah! 207 calories gone for just 20 minutes of cardio! Now that's SWEET!

2.0 miles - 20 minutes 58 seconds
Training Day 6
Today's run proved that having a running partner is most helpful and needful. Having a running partner,(or coach in Sherri's case), gives her the drive she needs to push a little harder and a little further. As you might have guessed, Steve and Sherri did not get to run together today.
Sherri set out for a 2.0 mile run earlier this evening. There was a slight breeze and the temperature outside was right around 70 degrees. A beautiful evening indeed.
Unfortunately, Sherri really struggled with the hills as she just didn't have the inward drive to run up them. Usually, when she hits these hills Steve is ahead of her, and that's when she focuses on his feet and speed. However,tonight there were no feet to focus on.
Between running the straight paths and walking some of the inclines Sherri finished the 2.0 miles in 20 minutes 58 seconds.
The next run is set for Thursday; where she hopes to better her time.
