3.300.000.000.000.003.30

I ran the first 3 miles in 33 min,

I ran the first two without stopping at all then I had to walk for a minute to catch my breath. If I would not have stopped to walk I think I would have ran it in 30 minutes.

Then I walked .30 to cool down and stretch.

I did my first mile and a half on the stair stepper because my shins were sore and that seems to stretch them or warm them up.

Then I went and did 30 reverse sit ups.

I ran the first three miles in 33.30 minutes then I walked to cool down.

I think I could have ran at least another mile with out stopping but my shins were starting to hurt.  

I went back and did 400 crunches on the ab machine and worked my arms a little bit.

After young womens tonight one of my girls asked me to go run/walk with her so we went to the park. we walked one lap then ran one. We did a total of 1.25 miles. It was past her bed time. But my shins were done for the day any ways.

I had shin splint pretty bad today so I ran my mile and decided it would be best if I let my shins rest before I can't walk. I ran my mile in 10.44 then I walked .25 on an incline of three.

I worked my abs, did a few leg weights then I did the arc trainer for 35 minutes. I had it on a level 5 which is weights ranging between 5 and 30 pds most of the work out it is on the 25 and 30. It kicked my butt. I am tired today.  I really had to push my self and talk my self through my workout today.

I did not work out today. I don't think I really have an excuse other than all my kids were out of school and I ran alot of erans. I had a cyst on my wrist that I had drained wednesday night and that was really sore and it was wrapped pretty tight I was thinking sweat and throbbing in the bandage and brace would really suck. beside I was so tired I could hardly stand it.

Somehow I mixed up my entries. This one is for thursday.

I did 1.25 miles on the arc trainer to warm up and stretch my shins a bit.

I ran my first three miles without stopping. 32 minutes.  My best time ever. I walked .25 to cool down and stretch.

I worked my abs and then rode the bike  2.15 miles in 10 min.

I feel pretty good.

Although I have been working out for about thrre straight weeks now and I have not lost any weight and I don't see a diffrence that is disapointing.

I ran the first 3 miles in 32 minutes. I had to talk myself through it but over all it felt good.

I walked and streched for 10 minutes after my run on the treadmill then I stretched on the floor for a few minutes.
