Week 2; Day 3

Distance: 2.25 miles

Workout: 5 minute warm-up (4 mph); 90 sec running (6 mph) and 2 min walking (4 mph) for 20 minutes; 5 minute cool down--skipped the arms today--I'm on a time crunch this morning...headed to the Daisy Bucket to scrapbook--plan to pick up the arms tomorrow

How do I feel:

AWESOME!!

Changes I have noticed:

weight loss-none...sorta weird I think that I've been working out way more than I have been for the last six months and I still haven't lost a pound...could have something to do with all the ice cream I have been eating this week!:)

Although my body is starting to change...my rear and thighs are getting a lot less jiggly when I run. This is another reason for running strictly on the treadmill in my bedroom...not causing blindness or car accidents...no need to expose others to that!;)

Still definitely a long way to go but I'm feeling more and more committed to this than I was when I first started. It was sort of a whim at first and now I think this is going to become my new way of life. The fever is catching on too. Ted is starting to get into it...not the running; he is strictly a walking guy but we are changing our eating as a household which I totally appreciate and his is supporting the time I'm cutting out to do the exercising! Thanks honey! I love you!!

Amen, sister... I totally agree!
Still excited for us all!
So happy that you made it and are off to face week 3! I am looking forward to it. Day one for me is tomorrow.
And, I am really beginning to feel a difference in my body too, although, I have a million miles more than you to go!
Have fun at the DB! I will be thinking about you!
