Running because I can!

I have the worst church time now that the new year has rolled around. 2:30, so i decided I would get in some  treadmill time. I think that if I skip days I may get out of prctice again.

I have some small shin splints today so I walked .25 then ran .25.  I just had a goal of 40 minutes today. I read that 30 minutes maintains weight and 40 and more will help you lose weight. I thought I would push it to 40. I was done at 30 today but I have not slept good the last two night and I am so tired.

Thanks for your suport guys!    

I had a crazy busy day yesterday and never made it on the treadmill, so I tried to make up for it today.

I ran my first two miles in 23 minutes and I stayed on the treadmill for a total of 39 minutes. not close to my best time but I felt good about it.

I am going to try to start back at the gym tomorrow.  (I hope)

I finally made it back to the gym today. I have not been sleeping well because my baby gets so sick at night so i was proud I even made it with the little sleep I got last night.

Wednesday After that huge snow storm I went out and shoveled my drive way and side walk into one big pile then about an hour later me and my 4 year olds went out and I shoveled half our frount yard into the pile. I made a snow cave big enough for them all to fit in. I think I was out there for a total of 2.5 hours.

Yesterday I could not move, my back was so stiff. Still hurts today but I think it is the muscles from shoveling and throwing it high on top of the pile.   

Because my back is so stiff I did the acr trainer for 30 minutes 1.60 miles and then Did a couple of easy weights and a few cruches (Not many because my back) Then I got on the bike for 35 minutes and went 6.25 miles.   

I had some extra energy tonight so i decided to get on the treadmill. I acually had my best run since being back. I ran my first mile in 10.24 min's and then my second at the 23. something min, and then I walked slow for a couple of minutes to cool down. I feel good!
