Welcome to Volume 6 of my training tips! We are only 6 posts away from the big weekend. I just booked my flight!
By now you should have all received the Prevention Training Program from me via email - the program is 12 weeks long and we are less than 12 weeks out so I hope you have at least started!
Some tips for adhering to the Training Program:
1. For my cross training, I have been bike riding - I will try to post the picture online - Kaya has been bike riding with me in the basket on my bike. She loves it! If you have a bike and it is not too cold and icy outside, try it - it really is fun. Swimming indoors at the gym or doing yoga or exercise videos at home would also be great cross training activities.
2. The Training Program requires that you get some long walks in. This is very important, but not that practical - who has 8 hours in a day to walk? Try breaking it up by running errands by walking. The other day I walked to the dentist, then to get my nails done and then to CVS - in total I walked almost 6 miles without even thinking about it.
3. Don't get down on yourself. It is practically impossible to follow the Training Program so congratulate yourself for the walks that you do get in - you will feel better and look forward to the walks, I promise!
Until next time,
Jen
