Yesterday morning I hit the gym at 7am, my earliest time there yet! I like getting up early and getting it done on Saturdays and Sundays. That way I have the whole rest of the day to spend with my family, or at work (unfortunately) lol. Sunday wasn't a running day, but I felt like running instead of using the elliptical.
Here was my workout:
Warm-up Walk 5 min @ 3.5 mph
Run 13.5 min @ 4.5 mph (my first full mile!!!)
Walk 2.5 min
Run 1 Min @ 5 mph, Walk 1 min @ 3.5 mph (2 of these intervals)
Run 30 sec. @ 5.5 mph, Walk 30 sec. @ 3.5 mph (4 of these speed intervals)
Walk 8 min, cool down
I RAN MY FIRST MILE!! (since Jackson was born)
It was a huge milestone for me, and I just wanted to prove I could still do it. I'm really looking forward to tomorrow's run, which is the beginning of week 4 for my 5K training. I'm not sure if I'll hit the gym tomorrow night for crosstraining or not...we shall see. I def need to tomorrow running to get my run in since it's going to be snowing cats and dogs on Wednesday...so I'm not planning on going anywhere that day! :) I don't think I'll have lost any weight for tomorrow's weigh in either...I'm thinking my weight will stay put this week. I made some bad food choices...nothing too crazy. Plus, I've gained a lot of muscle this week...so eh.
