WiW: Week 1
Weight: 147.4
Waist: 32
Hips: 38
Thigh: 24.5
I don't even know where to start.
First, YAY! I finished week 1! And I didn't die! I've run ever other day since Thursday. I was sore on Friday, worse Saturday, by Sunday I was feeling a bit better, and by Monday I felt basically normal. And run 3 might have actually been a teensy bit better than run 2.
I had planned to shred on my off running days, but after that first fun, I thought I better wait until I have a couple days to recover from that first shred. I'm glad I waited, because I'm not sure I would have made it through that second run if I had been any more sore.
I'm a little annoyed that I don't have distances for my first two runs. I'm using the Nike+ along with a C25K app on the Touch. I finally got that bug worked out on run 3, my total including warmup and cool down was 2.66 miles. Hmm, I need to put that on the calendar, I guess.
I'm peeved that I've gained a bit of weight, but I haven't exactly been and angel with the eating. Sunday we went to a birthday party and had (yummy) fried dinner and cake, so I guess I can't really act too surprised. I really need to do better with my diet in general, but I'm just craving crap all. the. time. Worse, I think all this wonderful extra exercise is making me hungry. And tired. I thought exercise was supposed to give you more energy?
Anyway, I'm going to keep up with the running, try to eat less (HA!), and I might try working a shred in on Saturday, since I'll have Sunday off to recover from it. I'm also looking at a situps app. I'm totally doing this because the technology is fun.
Whatever works!
