So,
the last couple days I've been forcing myself back into the swing of things when it comes to working out. I hit ( yet another) speed bump and became less than regular over the last 2 or so weeks, my excuse was my travelling for work, with barely any time to sleep. I had swam and done yoga, but nothing super hard core.
So, I started with a 3 km run on Monday and a plate work out. My arms were jelly after that ( I used 25lb plate and a 15 lb kettle bell - yes I finally bought them) as well as my 30 Squats. I thought I was going to be sore... but I wasn't. So Tuesday I did a 5 km run and a circuit that was mostly upper body, but abs as well, plus my squats. ( and I fixed my spin-lock dumbells, which makes me happy)
Today, I had a bit of... stomach upset so its a good thing its a rest day. I woke up with the worst headache known to man, and thought that that was the worst of it. It wasn't till around lunch time that my stomach acted up, and I've managed toast and some crackers this evening... :P I've actually JUST started to feel better, so hopefully tomorrow isn't painful. I was planning on doing a lighter run, then some yoga. Maybe some abs too.
The girl from work who said she'd run the 10k with me finally signed up for it. I had kinda expected that she wasn't going to, but she did. So hopefully the weather will take a turn for the better and I'll be able to get some out door runs with her down.
I've also continued doing more work on my fundraising attempt with the Spartan Races. Though I don't know if I will personally be able to do them anymore ( with work training, I might be out of town and up to my eyeballs in not fun-ness) But, if I can at least get people doing it as well, fingers crossed.
Also, with this training thing for work, I want to be able to be competitive with the running and fitness that will me expected of me, so more motivation to keep going.
One step at a time. Ow, tummy decided to remind me that its still in pain... :(
