so the first week back go working out was a success! and i felt so good( not to mention i lost a pound!)! like i said last week, my health habits have been slacking lately... but i have regained motivation, and started to be more fit again. i am so much more happier when this is apart of my life. and the runner's high is amazing. hopefully i will be able to keep my goals up and run another half marathon this year!
fit report
wednesday 5 mile run
thursday 4 mile rub
friday 3 mile rollerblade
and lots of walking inbetween!
i really wanted to get some more runs in last week.. but because it was my lovely friends wedding over the weekend , i wasn't able to get them in. however i was able to do a little dancing on the dance floor ;)
chad and i have both decided to start exercising more so our goal is to do 2-3 work outs in the mornings before work. i realize that i love working out in the morning. and if i wait till after work, there is a very high probability that the workout will not be happening, ha!
even if i know i won't be able to get a work out in, i try to at least do some walking to be a little bit active. yesterday i was busy catching up, doing things around the house and kinda ran out of time to go for a run, but chad and i decided to go out on a walk and it was so beautiful. the sky was filled with beautiful colors and it almost looked like we were in a tropical area.
so, even though i didn't get my work out in- i was able to spend some time outside, doings something active with the one i love.

Good job! I started working out last week too (and am still sore in my triceps). Looks like you're doing good with all that running! Keep up the good work.
ReplyDeleteGreat job for the first week... I have been going to the gym for a while now, but its been a slower start for running. My current goal is to do 10 miles a week along with alternating workouts at the gym. You're right, going after work is nearly impossible... I would much rather go in the mornings!
ReplyDeleteI haven't conquered my runners knee yet, so I unfortunately haven't had that option, but I do hop on my bike quite often and have been working out with an exercise ball which provides endless possibilities for fitness! :)

oh yeah, gurl. get your fit on :)
ReplyDeleteI'm the same way with morning work outs. 90% of the time if it doesn't happen before work, it doesn't happen at all. I've been a bit nervous to get back to running since being cleared from my injury, but June is a new start and I'm ready! Oh, and I'm so impressed that you rollerblade!!
