Five on Friday

23 July 2015|

Another crazy week of business and hectic-ness but it’s Friday again! And the school holidays are officially over – back to structure and routine in our household…
Linking up with Christina and friends for Five on Friday and Karli for Oh Hey Friday!

Running 

It’s no secret around here that I have never been a runner and that I actually hate running. Until now…
Two weeks ago, I decided that I needed to get my a&& back in the gym doing regular weight training twice a week and cardio (aka running) three times a week. I have started from the very beginning with a six week program that will slowly increase my running fitness and distance.

Thus far, I am very proud of my running progress. I have slowly increased my speed when running and walking and each run has show a good increase in distance. Soon I will just be running for 30 minutes (eeeeeeek!)


Week One: Run for 2 minutes, walk for 4 minutes (repeat for 30 minutes)
Week Two: Run for 3 minutes, walk for 3 minutes (repeat for 30 minutes)

Dare I say that I am actually enjoy it!
