Weekly Update

Tuesday I did nothing....Wednesday I ran an easy three miles and Thursday I X trained and did a mile at varying uphill inclines on the treadmill. I also rode about 7 miles on the bike. Rest today because I am having some weird shin pains and then I plan on 6 miles tomorrow!

Well, safe to say I have really been enjoying this new year so far...save for the switch in my work schedule which will require me to work Tuesday through Saturday now. Oh well, I will manage. School started Yesterday(Monday) and Managerial Accounting was on the menu. Enjoyable of course, the prof is pretty cool in a dry CPA kinda way. I like the class, even though 90 % of the rest of the group doesn't. Anyway...Saturday was met with the 6 mile Water Works loop. I love running this loop even though it kicks my butt!!! Monday I attempted a run in the am before school and was forced to walk/jog only 2 miles due to tight tight legs and nagging aches. I took it easy so as not to overdue it. I lazily laid around today (between laundry loads) and went to work...but no running or exercise of any kind. I will be out again tomorrow!

Saturday...6miles
Sunday...NADA

Wednesday and Thursday

Wednesday began with a 30 minute run around town...I probably only went 2 or 3 miles because I was slow. Then I locked my keys in car and that was a debaucle but I got in eventually. Today I X trained and had a blast at the Y...who woulda thought this outdoor girl could enjoy the sweaty smelly gym so much!

Wed: 30 min run

Thurs: 20 min on bike @ 20 mph
10 min on eliptical
1 Mile jog on the Treadmill
Lower body weight work

Back In The Saddle...

With the new year upon us, I have been trying to get my life back in order from the Chaos that is Christmas. I love nothing more than spending time with the fam and eating everything in sight...but twenty pounds later I am not a happy camper. I have set a goal to run a Marathon this year and I will not be stopped! More on that later...but this week is dedicated to getting a little fitness back and eating well. I have already lost three p0unds since the New Year began.
