Week 1, 2017

8/1 (Tues): DAY 1!
I'm definitely not where I want to be, but hoping that constantly running will get me there quicker. Last time I did this I was maintaining a pretty regular lifting routine a few days a week too. I'm not doing that now and not sure if I'm going to. I think I may consider it once I feel comfortable at an hour, but I'm barely eeking out 45 min as it is.

Also, Harper is kind of driving Jess & I nuts. She essentially never stops talking and whines for the tablet and/or treats all the time (even when she's just had one or the other). Jess laid with her for an hour before trading and then I laid with her for 2 hours until I fell asleep and I still think she was tossing until after 10p. She never stops moving either. It's like living with a crazy person.

Ran 5, 7:13/min miles (100 p.u.)

Also, been kind of working on 100 push ups (p.u.) a day with a wide range of completion. Success today though!

8/2: Hills program on the treadmill with average 2.0 incline. 5 miles again. (100 p.u.)

8/3: Seriously, WTF? Why am I this tired. Struggle to get to 2. TWO! Argh! Did 20 min on the bike to at least keep some cardio up. (100 p.u.)

8/4: Managed to eek out 4, getting a little better on energy.

8/5 (Sat): Outside run with hills. Despite training with the adjusting hills to simulate the outdoors, the actual outdoors are a bit more challenging. Still, did well and made it up all the hills without stopping. 4.17.
Harper and I met Jess in Northpark for lunch (astounding wings at North Park Beer Co)

That's it for week 1 as I like to count my weeks Sun - Sat, so the final week will be 9 days.
