Oh, Olive has had quite the day counting up all my steps. So far I've walked 18,269 at 18:00 since waking up at 05:25 today. I hit 5,000 by the time the tardy bell rang at school, and 10,000 a few minutes after lunch recess ended. The 15,000 occurred at the gym while I was running (second run of the day).
This afternoon I completed Week Two, Day Two on the treadmill. It was the same as this morning, but I was able to run through all the running parts and not skip any like I did this morning. Still, I am proud of myself! Considering that last Monday I was only thinking about starting to run and become a runner. Now, I am!
Time/Weather:
It is 83*F out right now, but it was a nice, warmish temperature in the gym. Arrived at the gym around 16:30 and was ready to go!
What Worked:
Knowing that I already did the C25K Week Two, Day One program this morning and that I surely would be able to do it again on the treadmill. Having water while running, and a fresh slather of chap stick was nice too! It was also fun to watch "Untold Stories of the ER" on the gym's TV (with captions!).
Also, a dozen trips to the printer at school helped rack up those steps!
What Didn't Work:
Nothing. Everything went well with my gym run. Except, that I forgot to write down my actual time and distances from the treadmill.
Motivation:
And,
tomorrow is a full rest day! Sleeping in and no gym.
