Life is Good

I did my own version of circuit training.  I set a timer to 2 mins and every two mintues changed from one exercize to another (2 mins of situps, 2 mins pushups, etc. etc.) and repeated the whole thing 3 times.  My abs were feeling pretty sore by the end :o) 

I was a total loser though... I had set my alarm clock for 4:10am to go for a bike ride.  But when it went off, I got up, started getting dressed and to head out the door, but my head started hurting, so I went back to bed.  Bad Camille.  That dang headache lasted all day.  I'm sure if I had gone biking, the fresh air would have helped.  Sometimes I just don't think about that.  see... total loser!

I need advice on my workout today (when I get home from work):

1. How many situps does it take to work off 3 Otter Pops?  My throat has been a little sore (Burt can testify to that since he has been listening to me cough through the wall) and I've been sucking on Otter Pops to cool it.  Yummy! 
2. I haven't ran in weeks (4 weeks, maybe 5... I'll have to check).  Except for one short little run last week.  I'm not in too much pain.  Actually, I'm not in any pain until I move "just right", and then I feel it.  Is it too early to go running?  What do you guys reccomend?

How many situps does it take to work off 3 Otter Pops? I just found out there are 15 Calories in an Otter Pop.  Not too shabby.  I can burn that off going down stairs at the end of the day. :o)

***Added***

I did 2.11 miles.  I know you girls told me to only do one mile, but I wasn't really paying attention to my distance until I was atleast 1 mile out, so I turned back.  Anyhow, my average pace was 9:25/mile.  I didn't think I was going that fast. 

Okay, here's the scope (so you guys can give me advice).  While running, I had pain at about a 2/10, maybe a 3.5/10 at the small hill that I should admitt to running up.  I'll report the pain after a few hours.  We will see what you think.

Thanks for the advice!!! 

Okay... later that night, the pain level got to 5/10, but this morning I don't feel any pain. 

No running for me...  But I guess that's okay.  The pain level is at around a 4/10.  I took yesterday off and spent the night relaxing.  When I put Melanie to bed, I also put myself to bed with a book.  (Brandon was at Scouts)

The coughing pain level is more like a 6/10.  Not cool.  I finally went to the doc (after a month), and he listened.  Then he had me to a breathing treatment, gave me an xray, and drew blood.  The xray showed that my lounges are super agrivated (I guess there's a lot of water in there)... and I could potientally get pnoemia (spelling?)  He can't treat me though, because I am nursing.  All he could do is give me an inhalor to help me open my lounges until I have weened Melanie.  :o( It may go away on it's own, but doc seemed doubtful.
