Laura found a training walk for us to go on with a larger team. They actually had a "mini" 3 day event...they walked 10 miles each day of the three day weekend. We only participated on the last day. Bekki's Boob Camp was a well-planned, highly motivating event! She even fed us on a pit stop! Super yummy breakfast burritos, juice, mini muffins, oranges, bagels, Gatorade. She takes care of her ladies (and her dudes--there were several men there, as well).
We walked, in a round about way, from the Target in Santee, to the Santee Lakes and around, and back. Bekki was awesome. She drove around, her county music blaring, waving and encouraging us on. Other drivers even got into the show and started waving at us. We walked ten great miles. Our pace was definitely slower than normal, at first. You can only walk as fast as the thirty or so people ahead of you! But it confirmed to us that we're training well and that our stamina is good. We were among the first ten or so to finish, as we didn't linger any longer than we needed to at the pit stop.
Laura and I are definitely planning to stop at the Mexican food place Bekki got the burritos from on our next walk around Santee! We're taking long enough walks that a food break is necessary...our theory is not to sit down, though! But to keep stretching and stay standing. I know that I'm afraid if I sit down, I might not get back up! Feet and ankles are a little sore, and we both took a nap when we got home, but we are both feeling pretty good!
Happy Walking!
