My Second Home

Planned Workout: 2 mile run/walk with running being .75 intervals
Actual Workout : 2 mile run/walk with running being .75 intervals

That's right.  I did what I was supposed to today.  And I "ran" my fastest mile yet.  11.44.  Usually, this is a rest or cross train day, but I didn't run yesterday and didn't do anything Sunday, so I needed the run.  Plus, me schedule is about to change.....

Why is my schedule changing?  Two words: Free Class

Our gym membership auto-renews every year.  They send us our new cards in the mail.  This year they sent us coupons, too.  I got a free Tee (size L, thank you very much..no XL for me anymore!)  There was also a coupon for a free session of a water class.  I signed up for Aqua Jog (it said it was intense).  It is 3 days/week, plus my boot camp on Saturdays, plus I have to take Little Miss to her classes on Tuesday/Thursday (making these my run days).  Whew! Just typing all that made me tired!

So, you guessed it, Sunday is my rest day, and the gym will be my second home.  I hope I do ok on only one rest day, but I need to kick it up.  And I get bored easily.  When I get bored, I get lazy.  When, I get lazy, I start sleeping in instead of going to the gym.  When I stop going to the gym, I get fat.  Oh Lord, I sound like a Direct TV commercial!

The other"new" thing in my life?  My sister and I are signing up for a 5K.  In June.  I want to be able to run the whole thing. I hope she will be able to run the whole thing too.  Mostly, I want it to be fun.  There is even a run Little Miss can participate in.

  1. I am so afraid I am not going to make it on that day. Although, I am trying to kick my workouts into a higher notch.
