    I think that's my last run of stage 3 workout a! Jebus!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,664 ✭✭✭doctorwhogirl


    70 minutes football tonight.

    Rest day tomorrow.

    Can't go to gym then Saturday as I have a stupid course!!! I'm going out Saturday so would love to get the gym workout done! So annoyed! Hate when my real-life schedule interferes with my gym schedule! Think I'll do a run instead as I have a 10k coming up in April so better do a bit.

    Sunday then will hopefully be gym. Hope I'm not dying from Saturday but not sure if I'm drinking yet anyway.
    Then I have a meal out Sunday evening.

    Busy out!

    Ok I'm going to start posting in here to keep track of my workouts again given the whole heart rate debacle!

    Also, my heart rate monitor seems to be giving up on me again, which is a giant pain in the arse, and an expensive one at that!

    Wednesday was a rest day (but I was in school putting posters etc... up on my walls so an active one!)

    Today

    8.5km run in about 44mins or so. Wasn't too fussed on the time, just trying to get past my mental block I've been having (i.e. laziness) of going over 5km.

    Legs in a HOOP after Tuesday. Run was tough, could really feel them.

    On the plus, weight is looking stable, the 1/2 extra pounds I had seems to have gone but more importantly I'm down to 36" around my hips. I've NEVER been below 38" so that's brill. Also down about an inch on the waist and about .5-1 inch off my thighs which is FANTASTIC as I could never seem to shift the inches.

    HRM monitor may say less calories burned, the inches say more!
