I felt like I was really off the exercise wagon, but here is where having an exercise log really helps! Tonight I went downstairs to visit Trudy Treadmill and when I went to log my exercise, I saw that the last time I exercised was Tuesday, March 4th...less than a week ago! Maybe not as often as I had planned, but more of a stumble than an all and out fall! :)
So tonight I completed week 4, day 3 of Couch 25K. It consisted of:
- Walk for 5 minutes
- Run for 4 minutes
- Walk for 3 minutes
- Run for 6 minutes
- Walk for 3 minutes
- Run for 4 minutes
- Walk for 5 minutes
The runs were HARD! I barely finished them, but I DID finish them. When I finished with that, I got on Barbie Bicycle and biked over 3 miles in 15 minutes and THEN I pulled out my 8 Minutes in the Morning book and completed Week 1 Day 1 exercise. I followed all of this with a stretch.
YEP, I feel accomplished...and back on the wagon! :) Someday I would like to put one of those 13.1 stickers on my vehicle as proof that I ran a half marathon. First I am going to run a 5k on May 24th in the Go Girl Run, then I will see what I need to do to train for a 10k, then comes the half marathon. Baby steps!!!
The original 8 Minutes in the Morning book--I love it! |
