Running because I can!

I did 4 miles on the elliptical today in 40 minutes. I felt like I pushed my self seeing as I wanted off at 30 minutes.  I went and worked my abs and then the day care came and got me because my baby was poopy. By the time I had him cleaned up my time was up so I had to cut it short.    

I ran my three miles in 33 minutes today and then I walked .50 on a high incline for a few minutes. I can't help but kick myself when I think how much farther I would  be if I would have kept with it the last few months.  

I felt good other than my fingers feeling numb and my throat burning.  I was right next to the double doors in the cinema room and I could feel the wind blowing in.   O and the bottom of my feet were on fire when I got off. They felt really tender. (Not sure if that is normal) I am beginning to think maybe I do need new shoes I have not even had these one for a year yet.  

I worked my abs just a little bit because they hurt from yesterday. I am not sure if  the abs are something that can be worked everyday. I have heard both ways. My abs need worked on more than any other part of me. 

I did two arm and back machines. I have this dying erge to hold on to the treadmill when I am running and I think if I strengthen my upper body more maybe it will get easier.

I had 30 minutes left so I got on the bike and rode 5.05 miles.  

My body seemed so tired today. I also ate a small salad about an hour and a half before the gym and I kept getting a bad side ache. I ran my first 2 miles with some walking at first.  I tried running after walking for a bit and my shoulder kept cramping up.    I was watching a good movie so I decided just to walk at an incline and fast pace. I did a total of 65 minutes. 

As I was streching the day care came and got me once again and said my baby was poopy. I changed him and had about 15 minutes left so I ran out and did some abs before I had to get my kids out of the day care.

I have had the hardest time getting to the gym lately so I do my best to get on my treadmill.   I kept saying I was going today and then one of my kids would distract me some how. I finally got on in the middle of cooking dinner. I set the dinner timer for 10 minutes and so my goal was to run  a mile in 10 minutes so I could stop and put the food on plates. So I ran it in 10.25. after I got my kids dinner to them I got back on and ran another mile in 9.45. Then I had to run to the store for my husband. Well I did walk .25 miles to cool down before I got off. Not the best workout or my first choice but I got it done. Yey,
