Week 1 Saturday
Strong is Sexy Fitness Challenge
Aw, thank God it's Saturday. It's been a challenging week and I'm so glad to almost be done with my first week of this challenge. If you don't count the modifications I needed for some of the exercises I've done an excellent job. The positive is that I got up and actually completed my workouts even when I wanted to just sleep in.
This morning I was able to take my time & enjoy my morning cup of coffee before starting my workout since I didn't have to be anywhere until noon. I decided against the Yoga video and opted instead for an run outdoors. I did spend sometime before hand filing some of my fitness papers, which needed to be done. I'm very glad to not have a pile of papers sitting on my floor.
I chose not to eat any breakfast before my run only because I thought I wouldn't have sufficient time for it to digest, but later wished I would have eaten since it was an hour and a half later when I finally got outside. I felt really nauseous with nothing in my stomach other than a medjool date and could have gone for a pb and banana for breakfast for fuel. I managed even on an empty stomach to successfully complete 3 miles in only 35.14 and then finished with a 10-minute Power Scult for Women + 5-minute cool down workout by the Biggest Loser 2 dvd. It was actually pretty intense and my legs were hating me during and after this workout and I felt amazingly proud of myself after finishing.

Once I hit the showers I realized it was just after 11am and that I needed to put a rush on my primping if I was going to be in enola by noon. I was embarking on my first official day of house hunting today (more on that in another post) and we had several places to check out so I didn't want to be late.
