Running with AdvoCare and More!

So, I am up to running 2.5 to 3.0 miles every other day. This is from someone who was living a very sedentary lifestyle 10 wks ago. That means this has been a GREAT accomplishment! Of course, you probably think that I am tripping over my feet, gasping for air, and reaching for anything as I finish the last...well...2.5 to 3.0 miles! Haha! The truth is, that I feel great! I am keeping a consistent stride on average of about 9 minutes 30 seconds a mile and am able to complete full sentences at the end. So, what do I attribute this to? I am glad you asked! Here is what I have done:

1. Conditioning! Make sure you work up to the mileage. My first run 10 weeks ago was 0.65 miles and consisted of two minute walks! Trust me, if you stay consistent (running every other day, etc.) and push yourself little by little, YOU WILL MAKE IT!

2. Encouragement! Yep! Find someone to challenge you! I am using my sister, sister-in-law, and of course, my beautiful wife! My sister and I challenge each other with the NikePlus application! My sister-in-law and I get on to each other when we have been slacking! My wife simply encourages me every step of the way. Half the time, she is the reason I get off my rear end to run!

3. AdvoCare! Without a doubt, AdvoCare has played a role in my energy, weight loss, appetite control, and stamina! Here are the products I take:
