G'ma has Liam and asked for extra time with him AND my boss has been extra cool lately and let me leave early so I got a ton done before I would have even been off work, including a workout all with pay! Happy Friday to me!
Also I may have signed up for my first 5k today, its in 15 days! EK! I may have lost the baby weight but eff am I out of shape!
So I went to the gym and thought to myself Ok, 3.1 miles, I got this, I can do this. Yeah I ran .75 miles and had to stop. I had to stop several times. Really, I can't even run 3 miles!?!?! Eff. Guess that is what I get to not working out for well over 6 months. Ouch. I did do the full 3 miles but it took me over an hour, due at least in part to my treadmill shut off after like 35 minute (over 2.2 miles). I didn't know what to do, I didn't set the timer, I had to take time to clean it off and find another machine and start the rest, I moved on to my old friend the Elliptical and finished out at a slower pace. *Side note PLEASE clean your machines after you are done at the gym, it's part of the deal, I don't want to touch your sweat any more than you wan to touch mine.. Anyway I burned over 400 calories in about an hour and did just over 3 miles so that is good. I'm gonna try it again in the morning.
I can't believe I'm doing a 5k, I've always wanted to be a running, guess everyone has to start somewhere. Oh by the way it's pretty likely that we'll have snow on the day of the 5k. EK!!!!
You can do it!!!
