So my "trainer" and motivator Julie decided we should do some hill work today. Let's just say "Heartbreak Hill" by OHS should be re-named "I hate you Julie" hill!! Although I have to say she even hated herself on about the third time around. Funny thing though...once again I ended up liking it in a sick sort of way!! It was great workout and when I got home I was pretty fired up that I accomplished a ONE HOUR AND ONE MINUTE continuous workout, running 90 seconds and walking 60 seconds throughout (longer run at the end)...and WITH HILLS!!! OH YEAH!! So today I do not feel like the slug I've felt I've been. Even with over 25 years experience in fitness, I actually had forgotten how good it feels to accomplish things you never thought you could accomplish...that's what I get for "stepping (rulking) outside the box" for myself!! So if you're thinking about doing something you think you can't do or don't want to, give it a whirl! Who knows what might happen!! Thanks for the extra push Julie! This would not be happening without you! You NEVER gave up on me, even after I gave you my first three weeks of trying out this running thing a few years ago!! (She promised she wouldn't bug me anymore about running after that time, but she lied! LOL!)
That's all for now, so far so good, onward and upward, and I'll be back with an update soon!
