Boy today was a ROUGH day! I did a 5k (which is 3 miles) on the treadmill yesterday.... I have been doing super good and enjoying it thoroughly....but today? whether it was something in the air, pms, the fact it was a saturday or I overdid it from yesterday- Today was ROUGH. I walked it. I jogged for about 4 minutes but it felt like my legs were trudging thru mud... I was tired. I walked it (almost) all 45 minutes. Usually a jog will take me 45 minutes but I had to walk...there was no 'jog' in me today. LOL
TJ is LOVING going to the YMCA-- he has taken the class for 13 yr olds to show them how to use the weight machine and he has been really working at it.... he showed me his biceps today and confessed today that he felt like he looked scrawney (that was his word!) and that he wanted some muscles. I told him to keep up the good work and he would feel confident in how he looks- he smiled.
Angel used the treadmill today for the first time- she did 16 minutes with an incline next to me... I think she enjoyed it but I think she also realized she needs her headphones so she could listen to the cartoons & not just watch them..... but she was extremely happy to be on the treadmills with us and then she went to go play in the playarea.
Rich has been really 'tearing it up' at the gym.... he means business! He does 60 min of cardio each time he goes or he does 30 min and weights. You can really start to tell- its melting off of his face and I believe in the tummy area too.... I think he is getting frustrated cause he cant see it - but its only been a month and I told him has to give it some time!
not much else new- 3 day weekend!
