(11)
Missed yesterday. Was feeling icky. Would have let myself feel guilty in the past, but there is no point right now.
I hit the gym this morning after dropping of the kiddos. Ran 37 minutes on the treadmill and then did some upper body weight training. While I was running I thought about how much I really dislike running on a treadmill. But today's workout came with two bonuses.
#1 I met my girlfriend there to work out with. It is always a joy to have someone fun by your side to motivate you and keep you on track.
#2 Treadmills show approximately how many calories you are burning. I am always surprised to see how much benefit you get from a hard run, even if it's only a short one.
Tomorrow marks the end of the first month. I probably won't squeeze in another run since I'm not up for back to back days yet. But I have to say, it's been years since I've done 11 solid workouts in a month. I'm happy with my start and look forward to getting stronger, slimmer & more fit in general.
