Back to Training

So I lounged around for the weekend and then decided to pick my C25K training back up again.  So we’ll say this is Week 1 Day 1! :)  Good session today, I did about 1.75 miles.  Slowly but surely I’ll get there.  Back and neck are 99% recovered, so tomorrow is weight training.  Really need to build core muscle strength.

Yet another setback

Well, I started C25k last week and was doing my best to stick with it.  I did the first couple of days of training and was all geared up for the 3rd, when I was in yet another car accident.  That’s my 3rd in 6 months.  I swear there’s a karma contract out on me.  So a little bit of whiplash later, and I REALLY don’t feel up to running.  Hopefully Monday I’ll be ok to start over.  When it rains, it pours!

On the plus side (or perhaps I should say the minus side) I am down 20 pounds today from when I started a few weeks ago.  Obviously that’s the “easy” weight to lose, but at least I’m seeing progress.  People knock low carb, but I honestly am never hungry and overall I feel pretty good.

I’m baaaack

Ok, enough with the hiatus.  I admit it, I was lazy and fat.  My exercise became sporadic and my middle became rounder, and I just gave up.  But I’m firmly on the path of low carb again, and now have the energy to look at excercise again.  I’m starting a new “C25k” program, which is Couch to 5k.  Sounds fun.  Here’s a rundown of the checklist:

So we’ll see how it goes!
