Got back from Chicago late last night and gym was closed by the time I got there.  Oh well.

For some reason when I got to the gym, every single piece of cardio equipment was taken.  So I did my workout backwards--lifted legs, abs and lower back, then ran.  My legs felt dead, maybe because I lifted first, but maybe not.

Lifted AM.  Wanted to go to the gym, but my niece and nephew came over unexpectedly in the PM and I felt guilty about going.  They stayed for dinner.  Apparently my husband invited everyone over earlier in the day but forgot to tell me.

I wanted to run outside but it was dark before my hubby got home from work.

I hurried to get 3 miles in before the ab core class.  I did my 3 miles in 24 minutes, but all at different paces ranging from 8:34 to 7:03.  Then I didn't even have time to catch my breath before I went to the class.  It was good but exhausting.

 It was 40 and it's supposed to be 40 Friday.  I was all excited, thinking I'd run outside to the gym Saturday for yoga, then run home.  But the news informed me that the high is 11 Saturday.  I'll probably run on the treadmill again instead. I'm hoping in a few more weeks it'll be light enough to run outside when my husband gets home.  I don't want to go more than 4 miles at a time on the treadmill.

Went to yoga and then did 3.3 miles on the treadmill in 1/2 hour.  It was an okay run, I varied my pace a bit, but the faster parts didn't last as long as I did on Thursday.
