So since the last post.. I got sick! Full on head cold poopy... sickness. Therefore - running didn't happen so much in that week after. The first run back afterward was HARD. I was still coughing and sniffly... and my head was still full of mucus but I pushed through. So I'm back now, have been hitting the treadmill really consistently once again. To add some body shock into it to get me really revved up (and burning those extra holiday delicious calories!) I've been doubling it up - spinning/pilates (spinlates) running/pilates, running/biking. To really get that burn on and start the New Year feeling fantastic.
And I DO feel fantastic! I was at pilates the other night at my gym.. and I'm a regualr there now so I know some other regulars. This particular girl (who happens to be my birthday twin!) came up to me and told me that I was looking great and toned and like I'd been training really hard.
Do you know how amazing that feels to have someone notice your hardwork?
I mean.. CN has been noticing the tone and that feels amazing. But he thinks I'm beautiful even when I don't think I'm beautiful. If I could have his eyes I'd be one cocky girl!!!! But he's definitely been a huge support system.. to getting my butt into the gym... and to buying clothes that actually fit me and show off my body.
I'm getting kind of pumped for this new year thing. I'm excited that I will be running a half marathon in 5 months. I want to do a 10K first.... get my toes into that water then really work hard toward my next goal. I'm also kind of intrigued at the idea of a triathlon......
Maybe I will train for a Half AND a triathlon.....
Now to find a pool. Because I am NOT swimming in lake ontario.
With that I wish you all a beautiful, happy, fit New Year.
Ps... running is a breeze right now. An hour goes by really really easily for me and i LOOOOVE it!!
