Been given a new 'interval' programme for the treadmill to hopefully get my speed up a little more over the 5K. It now ranges from 9.5 to 11.5 K in 2 minutes intervals over 30 mins - up and then down again. Very hard and not able to complete just yet!

 

[Eddie]

Just thought I would let you know, I have just done my first outside run in 2.5 weeks - 2.5miles in 25mins.
So hoping this is the start of my exercise regime again..
Hoping for another run either tomorrow or Friday and again on Sat (away this weekend).
Have 2 WI tomorrow, am wondering how the exercise will effect my WI, when I was exercising 3/4 times per week from Jan - May (for my wedding), I prob lost 3/4lbs in total.. Will let you know.
Good Luck to everybody else.

I'm not going kickboxing tonight like I had planned to because my neck is still very achey and sore and I don't want to aggravate it

Hi Eddie
Sometimes I really do not think I will be able to run very far at all and then have the best run of all! Other times my legs just do not seem to belong to me and refuse to go the distance no matter how much my mind thnks they should.
With regards to weightloss, I am really not too sure if it made a big difference on the scales but it has definately helped with the inch loss on the thighs and hips - so well worth keeping it going.

No conventional exercise this week but 3 early shifts at work so thats at least 12 beds stripped washed down and made.. 6 bedside cleans (chairs, lockers etc.. lots of bending) 12 flights of stairs .. 2 flights x 2 per day .. lots of walking up and down the ward.. putting stock away.. Lots of stretching involved there.. changing into scrubs x 2 a day .. surely that counts.. and just mowed the lawn and took me twice as long as had to keep stopping to pull my shorts up lol

 

[emski]

Oh poo make that x 4 early shifts .. forgot I worked on Monday as well xx

Lindam- I heard that the interval running helps burn calories. I try to to this on my walks I jog in place for a minute then keep walking. It is hard so dont get discouraged.
