With all the working out I've been doing, my body was getting a bit tight so I thought I would get to the chiropractor for a bit of alignment, or shall I say re-alignment. That felt great!
I've been working pretty hard, so I decided to take Friday and Saturday off. That felt good, my body must have needed it, as I slept until noon on Saturday! That was wonderful as well.
But with that, I was a bit concerned coming into today's workout. You see, in the past once I miss one day, then another, it turns into a week, then a month, and well you get the picture. So, although I had a filling replaced at the dentist after work today, I made no excuse, and I got to the gym.
Tonight I did my chest, triceps and abs. Then, I got on the treadmill to start intervals.
If you recall a few weeks back, I could barely do intervals of jogging a lap and walking 3 laps, then jogging a lap, etc. Tonight, I did 1 mile intervals! So, I jogged a mile, walked a mile, jogged a mile, and walked another mile.
That felt really good to complete that! Each time I do something I didn't think I could do, or wanted to quit midway through, but finish it, it feels really good. I have a history of not finishing what I start.
Happy jogging!
But look at you go! You are doing GREAT. And the more you do it, the easier it will be. They say it only takes 21 days to form (or break, I guess) a habit. Keep it up, Bro!
ReplyDeleteToday I did intervals - I went back to the every other lap intervals (11 laps to a mile) I was able to shave about 2 seconds off my average jog lap time from the first time I did it, and that let me add an additional lap in the 50 minutes I did it, so tonight I did 2.09 miles.
