Toying with Expanding the Program

Up until now, I’ve been a three day a week wogger (part jog, mostly walk). And even though I’ve been back to blogging for three weeks now, I’ve actually been regularly exercising a couple additional weeks, which means it’s time to up the ante a little bit.

I’m currently in the 10 – 11 mile a week range. I’m doing two mornings a week (Tuesdays and Fridays seem to be working) and one weekend day (Sundays) that’s a little more extended (5 plus miles). The commitment is comfortable and the results seem to be reasonable.

So – that now that I’m comfortable, it’s probably time to do a little more. Whether that’s one more morning a week or extending miles on Sundays remains to be seen. Like a lot of things this time around, the decision will be a game time decision. Stay tuned.

Now for some results:

Monday

Distance: 0

Calories: Deficit of 10

Distance: 2.65 miles @ 14:57 per mile

Thanks for following!
