Today was a much better day. I drank a bunch of water yesterday, so I didn't feel quite so fatigued or nauseous this morning. I took the Moon Dog for a walk and then went for a run/walk with my fabulous friend, Tracy. I really appreciated that she let me set our pace because as always now, my heart rate skyrocketed as soon as we started running. We did 1 min intervals and almost 3 miles. It was a beautiful morning for a run.
So, I am still on track for this week. Today was my second scheduled short run. It was nice to run with someone. I've been running solo because I hate feeling like I'm slowing people down. I like running alone, but it's also nice to have someone to talk to once in a while. I'm hoping to start her boot camp classes next week. I've been putting it off mostly because I've been exhausted, but if I am completely honest, I've also been nervous about going back - and embarrassed. I haven't been to a boot camp class since I was in shape, and I am embarrassed about how much I have let myself go. Still, the only way to get back into shape is to challenge myself. I plan on being there on Monday morning. I'll do what I can until I can do more.
Yesterday, I did end up doing a yoga workout. It was extremely necessary. My muscles have been painfully tight, and I know if I don't stretch regularly I will end up getting hurt. I'm aiming for one or two long yoga sessions every week as well as a minimum of 10 minutes of stretching most days.
I also threw in a quick push-up/TKD workout yesterday because I felt like stress-eating. It was enough to stop my cravings and make me feel calmer.
Wednesday's second workout:
push-ups level 1 10 reps
1 arm push-ups level 1 10 reps/side
Won Hyo x2
push-ups level 2 10 reps
1 arm push-ups level 2 10 reps/side
Won Hyo x2
push-ups level 3 10 reps
1 arm push-ups level 3 10 reps/side
Won Hyo x2
I still need to stretch this evening, but I'm feeling good today.
