It's now been exactly 1 month since I posted my last blog about starting to do early morning runs instead of running after work. I am so happy (and proud) to say that I am still doing my morning runs at least 4 times a week and I even look forward to them everyday! It is still hard to get out of bed, but no harder than it was before. After the run, I am wide awake and ready for the day...that was never the case before. I also have all this time in the afternoons that I never had before. To top it all off, I have lost around 6 lbs this month! It's a win win situation in every direction!
So now that I have this fabulous new work out routine, what do I do next? I want to vary it by doing something different on the weekends like yoga, a work-out video or weight training. I want to start taking a multi-vitamin everyday. I want to increase my daily mileage at least once, if not twice, a week. Fabulous...I think I will start these today...I'm feeling very confident these days...it's a nice feeling.
My vote is weight training ... but do some research. I am a big fan of Women's Health and Self magazines. Abby likes Shape (we were just talking about this Tuesday). I stopped hating spam when I started this blog and LOVE the daily emails I get from various weight-loss and get-in-shape places. I get snippets of useful information every day. When I want to learn more, I know where to start!
ReplyDeleteI think i'm just going to do what I feel like on the weekends...sometimes that's yoga, sometimes that's weight training, sometimes that's an 8 mile walk. Since my workout routine during the week is so regimented, I don't really want to do the same thing for my weekend workouts too.
