Getting back into this, getting back into being in shape. I got me a trainer, a google spreadsheet training plan and soon, I will be signed up for marathon #4 and hopefully…NYC in the fall as #5.
I’ve decided that eventually, I will not just run Boston, I will qualify fair and square. It might take me a while but I want to do it. I will do it.
$97 extra per month for training for 4 training sessions/month will make me accountable and keep me in line. I tend to slack easily, find the easiest excuse, and just get lazy.
But I’m revamping this blog with my workouts, my weight loss (I’m trying to lose about 15-20 lbs on top of run marathon #4 in sub 5:00:00) and my eating habits. Not gonna lie, consider this my foray into the fitness blogger scene. Whoop whoop.
So, to conclude, here was today’s workout…
cardio: 1 mi. 10 mins (warmup)
strength: circuit w/trainer. Aka ASS KICKING. If I could list everything he had me do… 2 sets of 20 jumping jacks, 2 sets of 15 mountain climbers, 2 sets of 20 lunges (with weights), 2 sets of 20 squats, 2 sets of 10/15/20 rows (60/30/20 lbs), 2 sets of 15 lat pulls (60/30) 2 30 second plants, 2 sets of 20 leg lifts (hold then 10 crunches – arm to knee), 10 pushups, etc…
eating:
breakfast
1 bowl cap’n crunch with skim (~400 cals)
Lunch
1 veggie burger from Buffalo Wing bar next to Hubs’s office with naked grilled chicken app (with terriyaki sauce)
Dinner
whole wheat mini margherrita pizza (fresh tomatoes, basil, mozzarella cheese, with italian seasoning)
1 diet coke
2 bottles of water (32 oz)
I feel pretty good about my eating habits, I went grocery shopping today and got a lot of fresh fruits and veggies per my trainer’s suggestion. All in all, I’m excited. I’m motivated and I am finally taking back my body as my own. Take that sedentariness.
