But seriously. Workouts.
Monday - Treadmill. So I wasn't feeling great Monday. My body was giving me hints not to go to the gym but I was ignoring them. I have been trying to walk on the treadmill before I get back into running so Monday was a walk on the treadmill day. I was shooting for 3 miles but only made 30 minutes (about 1.5 miles). My left leg (not the PT leg) was killing me! I listened to my body (my PT Heather would be so proud). I was disappointed for not finishing my work out but knew that I was doing the right thing. I went home, took two advil, and iced my leg. I'm learning that advil and ice are my new best friends and I should get to know them very well.
Tuesday - Spin Class. I having going to a new workout studio that opened recently - BodyRok. It is awesome and they have great spin classes and teachers. I was racing home from work to try and make my 6:20 spin class. Fail. I got home at 6:10 (starving) and knew it was a 15 min walk plus 5 min to get ready and grab a snack. The classes are only 40 minutes so I knew I would come in quite late and disturb everyone else. I felt guilty (I had to pay for these classes) and I could have sat on my couch and watched some great shows from my DVR BUT I didn't. I looked up the group fitness schedule from my local crunch and motivated myself to go to a 7:15 spin class. I got there earlier to reserve a bike. I hadn't had much luck with getting a bike at crunch before. The class was great and pushed me which I needed after yesterday's depressing work out.
Now I need to find time over the next couple of days to exercise. Like I mentioned I tend to overcommit. Tomorrow I have a cooking class from 6:30 - 9. Thursday I have Kickball and Happy Hour. Friday I am meeting up with a friend for drinks. Saturday is SF Vintner's Market. I am going to need some creativity to find ways to make it to the gym. I'll let you know on Sunday how it goes!
