Week 3, Day 2

Garlic pizza for dinner before you decide to run as far as fast as you can does NOT work well! I was close to losing that same dinner tonight...I know TMI but this blog is for me too and I need to have this post to remind myself what NOT to do.

So a test for myself...even though I have read a hundred times take things slow. Theory..this is getting easier I think I can run faster than this. Truth...I'm an idiot and I should follow the training plan that is put together by professional trainers who know what they are doing.

Did the 5 minute warm up (4 mph); ran 90 sec (6 mph); walk 1 minute (4 mph); and then ran a full mile at 6.5 mph...I finished but it pretty much messed up my entire work out. Even though I ran the whole mile...I still only ended up with total calories burned 376; total miles 2.534. So lesson learned. Still REALLY out of shape here.

My feet are taking a total beating! Too many cheap high heels, gave me a weird calluse on my foot. Turns out it is getting aggravated by my new hobby. Hopefully Kerasal will solve my problem.

Got my arm band for my Ipod. Still look like a dork, just not as big of one!:)



I'm usually not one to take pictures of myself but in this little journey I think it will be good to have a few to compare over time. So bare with me on all the self portraits.

Totally ready to get a shower and go to bed! Week 3, day 2: DONE!
