| | So tonight I borrowed a new workout video from my sister in law and tried it out for the first time, HOLY MOLY!!! It's called Physique 57, is anyone familiar with it?? Okay, okay, this is by FAR (yes Amber G. for real this time) is the hardest video I have ever done. I have never felt the muscles in my legs burn as intense as they did tonight. It was SO FUN though and the lady (instructor on the video) is very entertaining to watch and quit funny actually!!! It was fun to do something a bit different. I wish I had been doing this video for the last month because I am sure it will bring results!!

| | Full 57 minutes of Physique 57 again tonight. WOW, yet again a very intense workout and very fun at the same time!!
Also, I managed to go the entire day without sugar! Only because my son and I challenged each other to accomplish certain things today and my choice was to go the day without sugar. This may not sound that hard but this comes from someone who has to eat sugar on a daily basis, NO KIDDING!! I can't remember the last time I went through a day with a treat of sort, so this was hard for me! Thanks to my sweet son for motivating me :)

| | SO, I am a a bit disappointed with how my day panned out today! I wanted to wake up this morning..........didn't. Wanted to go run when I got home from work and.............didn't (you know how the night routine goes: Dinner, WalMart, Payless, stuffing Pinatas in preparation for my son's birthday party tomorrow, tidy up the house, kids to bed, etc). Went down to run on the treadmill and my dear husband was trying to rig the DVR so that I could watch my shows while doing so but the TV experienced some complications and I was left watching a few segments of Mary Poppins so I gave up after just 2 short miles (actually 1 mile of brisk walking at a 4.5 incline, and one mile at a 8:30ish pace). Then, I came up stairs and did a bit of "ball" work. All in all, it only resulted in about 35 minutes of exercise, but........oh well!! I'll try harder tomorrow and Friday! |

| | Wow, yes, you see it, TEN WHOLE MILES!!! This may not seem like much to most of you out there but it's the furthest I have ran since November and the farthest training run I have been on since the marathon so....yes, it's a big deal for me. I woke up not feeling very ready to run but my Sargent Husband cracked the whip and kept me runnin! We ran out and back. There were many times of trial and ache along the way..............okay, not really that dramatic, but there were some hard times but all in all, it was a nice run. Nice weather for running also and HEY, I GOT IN 10 MILES!!! I am not exactly sure on pace because mine and Ty's watches recording different paces per mile but I estimate a 8:40-8:45ish |
