BRICK

My goal is to workout five days a week.  If I do three I won't be mad at myself.  Yesterday, I was hoping to run but my running partner was sick and the couch was really comfy.  My mom asked if we could go for a walk, she is trying to lose weight,  how could I say no?  The three of us headed out, she, myself, and my dog.  My dog counts as a whole because he weighs over 100lbs.  He is a great Dane lab mix.  We power walked 3 miles.

My goal is to run M,W,F and bike T, H.  Until the water temp warms up and I add swimming.  I do kitchen swim at least twice a week.  I just wonder what the neighbors think!  So, today was suppose to be a bike day, but I really wanted to run.  I got my iPod issues settled so I was able to put an audiobook on it, I was ready to go.   I got to the gym and realized that I didn't bring my ear phones.  :(

I did figure out how to hook up earphones to the dreadmill and bike, but alas no earphones.  I wasn't sure how this work out was going to go.  Since I'm in "pre-season" I'm really flexible with what I do. I try to push my bike workout to be a third longer than running, other than that I roll with it.  I was able to get on the dreadmill in front of the tv on hgtv instead of sports, score, I ran for a mile and then hoped on the bike.  I rode for three miles and then realized that I hadn't been on the bike for 15 minutes.  So I rode until the 15 was up, 3.3miles.  I then got back on the dreadmill!  I ran for a quarter of a mile, walked half and then ran for the last quarter.  I always look forward to the sprint at the end of my run.  When you leave it all on the road.  I jogged until I hit the mile marker so I would know that I would get my mileage, but then I cranked up the machine and just ran.  It was amazing!  My labored breathing became even and my body was like this is what I want to do.  I remembered how much I like running fast.  I ran another quarter.  My next dreadmill run I'm going to remember my headphones, open her up and just see what the old girl can do!
