I’ve added some new before and after pictures and I finally added my races, that I’ve been in since I started running. I will also be adding my old food journals that I’ve kept since I first started this journey. I look at them the other night, and I was surprised at my diet… I’m going to post them, because I think it’s important for people to see how my diet has evolved over time. I didn’t start out eating like I eat now, at all!! It’s interesting for sure. I’m glad I kept them!!
I had a really good workout tonight with my trainer…upper body…my arms were so engorged with blood I could not move them. The last thing I had to do was 40 push ups on a medicine ball, but my muscles in my arms felt so big and fat that I had trouble bending them to do the push ups!! After that I worked out on the elliptical, not my favorite piece of equipment, I really have to push myself and crank up the level to get a good work out on this machine. The gym was crowded tonight, all the ARC trainers, Cross trainers and Stairmasters were taken, that left the ellipticals or the tread mills. Normally I would have run, but Sunday I tried to go for a run because we ran a lot at bootcamp on Saturday and my Achilles felt good. But, Sunday when I started to run, my Achilles started to hurt again, so I came back and rode my bike instead. I think it’s getting better. I wanted to run in the 5K Stadium Challenge on August 13th, but I don’t think I’m going to be able to. This sounds fun!! Anyway, I need to finish packing up for tomorrow… gym bag, food, clothes…So goodnight! ~B
