Mai Hana: Diet and workout plans

So, my boyfriend, Jayson, is currently studying dietitics and nutrition in school and he likes to workout so he's making me a diet plan and a workout plan for me to follow when I start Couch to 5k.

As of right now, I don't have a weight loss goal or anything like that. I'm primarily focusing on my running just because long distance running is something I've always wanted to do but was too scared to do so because I didn't look like a runner. Hopefully, though, by following the plans, I can lose some weight along the way.

Yesterday, I posted about my excuses for not running. Excuse #4 was "I don't look like a runner, therefor, I cannot be one."

When I worked the half marathon weekend when I used to work at Disneyland, I saw so many different kinds of people participating in the marathon. There were people that looked like they've been running their whole lives to people who were running their first marathon of their lives. I actually asked some of the runners how long they've been running for and the answers varied anywhere from 10+ years to barely 6 months. That's when I realized that nobody comes out of the womb running [That would be SO creepy if they did!] They all have to train and work their butts off in order to cross the finish line. That's when it clicked. I can get myself the Disney marathon medals I've always wanted to get if I put in the effort and train to cross the finish line just like everyone else.

So here I am, working toward my first Disney half marathon medal...and beyond! =]

TTFN!
Tata for now!
