Workout

Thanx Sandra

Sandra is in my running group but although we're already at week 8 (!!) the first time I saw her was Sunday. 

I was dreading tonights run. I really did not want to go. Partly because I was lazy after sitting home all day but also because the email said we were doing a counter-clockwise loop. I've only done the loop twice, once in each direction. Sunday we did counter-clockwise and the hill at the end was torturous. It went on and on. After reading that and the fact we were doing it at night, I was not interested. But I went.

There weren't too many of us tonight. Sandra asked to partner with me so she wouldn't be at the back alone. I told her that I take a lot of breaks and walk a big chunk of it. She said that was ok, she does the same. But she kept running, and running. And I went along with her. And when I slowed down she pushed me on. It took me 42 minutes to finish (3.68 miles). I only took 3 walking breaks. 

Eat wild: Breakfast was cereal and milk-not wild. Lunch was tuna can-not wild. I'm counting dinner. It was broiled chicken and vegetable quiche. 

Today I did 30 pushups, and 30 squats. No situps.

This is so awesome!  I sometimes forget how amazing having a workout partner can be.  Even just knowing other people are going to notice if I'm not there can be enough motivation to get off my butt.

I was at the Jack Rabbitt Store the other day talking to one of the girls there about the runners groups and I was like "oh yeah I have read so much good stuff about it that I am definately going to do it in April". She got all excited because she is one of the leaders and asked me who I knew, I was like ummm.... welll it isn't like that, but I am totally inspired to do it in April!

So see, Fraidy you are inspiring too.
