Lets try this again....

Ok, last week (as my re-start to a new routine) was a bit of a bust.  Shanan and I worked out with my TRX in the park beside my office building and I wrecked myself! My shoulders were so sore I was taking Aleve for 3 days, I couldn't sleep though the night, and I was whingey!  This weekend was spent at the rink, and when I wasn't at the rink I was cleaning the house. I did walk the dogs, but it wasn't the nice, long walk we all three needed.

Today I couldn't muster up the courage to go out and do anything complicated - so I simply went for a run. Well, a jog! And, as I haven't been running for ages I did the smart thing and started with intervals. I used my GymBoss and set up a one minute run, 30 second walk. I did 14 rounds, which means I ran for 14 minutes, walked for 7, and a total of 21 minutes of activity! Most good running websites teach good running technique and encourage new runners to start with a slow but steady interval that will over several weeks, get you to running without stopping a set distance.

There is a nice trail along the Harbour that I used today, however I only went 1/2 way, and then moved up to Portland Street for my return trip:

So, tomorrow will be TRX in the park again with Shanan, and perhaps even Jenn! I'm going to try to spend sometime on the computer tonight and arrange the routine.

No, if I can just eat healty and be mindful of my caloric intake....all I really need to do is rest my hand on my belly to remind me what it's all about! :}

Later!
