10K Chronicles of Mary Kay Gates - part 4

Mary Kay Gates


Feb 27, 2008

Still having a little hard time scheduling time for myself to exercise, however I must say it is getting easier because the days I do take some time for myself, I feel much, much better…and those days I definitely watch my caloric intake!

Experiences February 19th through 25th

Tuesday: walked 3 miles (with husband!)

Wednesday ran 4.5 miles

Sunday ran 3.5 miles

Monday ran 6.2! (the length of a 10K race) a very special day!!!!!!!

Now, I need your help!!!!!

I would like to share the fun with the Powhatan community! Come on down(or up or over or across) and take a class for FREE and see how a new fitness participant (that would be me) gets motivated and receive a free “I worked out with Mary Kay” tee shirt*!  Must register by calling the Elizabeth Randolph Lewis Powhatan YMCA at 598-0250 a minimum of one hour before class/experience begins.

Share in the Fun Week

you are an inspiring example- is it necessary to actually exercise- or can one watch and obtain the benefits through osmosis
