Miles-to-date: 42.9
Goal: 100 miles
Day 10: 5.6 miles
Day 11: 2.2 miles
Day 12: 0.5 miles
Day 13: 0.5 miles
Day 14: 2.0 miles
Day 15: 3.0 miles
5 Day total = 13.9
These last few days weren't really great jogging days as you can see. I am not sure I can reach my 100 mile goals anymore as I will be out the following weekend. Unless, I get in 6 miles in per day. :(. so sad...

Days 6, 7, 8 and 9 of the Cardio Challenge
Miles-to-date: 29.0
Goal: 100 miles
Day 6: I jogged another 5.6 miles on Day 6. I followed the same path I did the previous day and pushed myself to jog 40 minutes, walk 5 minutes and jog another continuous 20 minutes. For cool down, I walked for 10 minutes.
Days 7 & 8: Did no exercise at all! There was minimal walking on the weekend.
Day 9: Today was day number 9. I also jogged my same route but this time I didn't really time myself. I kind of looked at the time after about 5 minutes of jogging and just kept going and going and pushing and pushing. I think probably jogged non-stop for about 50 minutes and walked for 10-15 minutes. In summary, I jogged/walked 5.6 miles again plus another mile I walked during the day running an errand.
Now, I am all tired :(. I should probably be taking my multivitamins daily to make sure I am doing ok in the vitamins department.

Days 1 and 2 of Cardio Challenge
Total miles: 8.5
Goal: 100 miles
A couple of days ago I jogged about 4 miles. However, all that time I thought I had planned my route such that it was 5 miles of jogging. I was totally wrong :(. It was a bummer, because by the end of the jog I felt soooo proud of myself.
Yesterday I followed the same route nearby where I live and added a little more and that made my jog to be 4.5 miles. I definitely need to find a 5 mile route. On my route, there is a sandy track. I jogged there for a bit but I just can't stand the dust (if there is wind), so I won't be going there anymore.
How do I keep myself motivated?
To be honest, I used to hate jogging. I jogged at the treadmill and I used to quit after 20 minutes. Tip #1: go jog outside if the weather is nice. By jogging outside, you will jog at your more "natural" pace and you will be a lot more distracted by people you see, trees, cars and even the change in sidewalk!
