Can you believe it? I can actually do my little jogs without huffing, puffing and wheezing now! I'm so surprised at how good I feel compared to just three weeks ago. Don't get me wrong - I have a long way to go and most would probably chuckle at my excitement over these little 20-minute sessions, but hey....it's working!
This week, I did 45-second bursts of running with 75-seconds of fast walking recovery. I plan to step up the number of sessions I do in the week ahead, aiming for 5. I also went for a great 1-hour bike ride with D this past weekend and I'd like to make that part of the normal routine as well.
Wish me luck!
PS - forgot to weigh-in on my usual day, but the scale is suggesting I'm down a couple of pounds. I think I'm going to make Fridays my regular weight day, as it's one of the few days I can almost guarantee I'm home and able to post!

ReplyDeleteWay to go on the endurance!! I do not know if I could last through 1 hour bike ride!!! I am still learning :)
ReplyDeleteThat is so great you are feeling the difference in your workout sessions! It feels so good and is such a motivator when you can tell your body is getting stronger!
ReplyDeletefridays are a great weigh-in day, i think. i started mine on mondays... not such a great idea when you're always messing up most on weekends.
ReplyDeletewell done on the running xx
