Gym & Training Day 03 Recap

#NoKidsAllowed

Yesterday was day three...  I was as sore as I've been in a long time, but I went to the gym, jumped on the treadmill and did 2.5 miles without issue...well sort of... about half way through my workout a mom brought her two elementary school age kids into the workout room and while they weren't being completely out of control, they were a distraction from what I was doing.  There is a playroom for the kids at the gym, a VERY nice one, so the fact that this mom had her kids in with us was mind boggling and a big distraction.  Part of the reason I'm working out at the gym is so that I can get my mind off my kids and get my mind on me.  Sounds crappy, but really, it's MomMe time!!!

Anyway, did a great job with the running then took my place in the corner with my weights and did Lower Fix.  I always feel a bit exposed when doing exercises, like some expert is going to be watching me and telling me I'm doing it wrong, but it never happens.  I remembered most of the exercises I needed to do, but after running my legs were like jello so I did them in a slightly different order when my legs were telling me that they couldn't do any more of a certain action.

Let me tell you it was a struggle to get that last set of exercises in, luckily I was sitting on the ground to do the leg lifts or I probably would have fallen down.  I even had trouble walking back to get the kids!

My highlight was being able to show the kids where I workout!  They wanted to see where I was so I walked them in and told them all about my workout.

After that I collected up the kids and they got to play with one of our neighbors in the pool.  I can't believe that today is now day 4.  We are going to do a later session due to my daughter's dance class, but it should be a great day 4!

My food has been hit and miss the last three days.  I'm doing it all right, but I feel like I'm still not getting in enough food.  Food prep for next week is going to be a BIG priority!

Also I'm excited.  One of my fellow Challenge Group peeps is going to run the 10k with me in August!  I can't wait to get out on the bike trails and get that BLING!!!
