Workout #2 for C25K

Ok here it is my walk jog during lunch in pictures. The first one is of my gym bag. It is sad to say that there is so much stuff in here that it gets pretty heavy. Not going to get too much into my bag because i am planning on having another blog about that. But here is what my bag looks like.

After changing and getting ready to go like I said before my work doesn't have lockers or showers and sometimes I don't drive so what I did was make friends with the people in the front desk. I will have to get a picture of them we'll see if they let me. Now off for my walk. My "trail" is just the sidewalks of the streets but honestly it is pretty shady as you can see. Also I work about 10-15 minutes from the beach so we get a great breeze at times and this day the breeze was blowing.

The next picture this is my before picture with my makeup all done from being at work and smiling and everything. I have my new pink ear phones in and a big cheese on my face. I am starting to wear tank tops which I have not felt comfortable wearing out during my walks until now. It's hot out there and i think I look decent in them. I don't feel like a pile of tummy jogging around out there.

This next picture is what I really look like during my walks/ jogs. i got my ipod going my forehead is shimmering with sweat bubbles but honestly I am feeling really good right now. You can tell I am breathing hard because I am not smiling. Breathing is more important.

Now that I showed you all what I look like during my walks let me show you what I look at during my walk. This pictures is on top of one of the hills that I walk and it is showing an apartment complex and the city of Mira Mesa. (I think) This area is where I get the best breeze of my walks well that is because it is on top of everything.

Then the last picture that I have just shows you that I am coming back to work after my walk. On a day like this I don't want to because look at it. Who wants to stay in on a day like this? It's really hard to come back but hey they pay me so I am there. Well guys I hope you liked the picture show and don't get jealous of the great weather I have to walk in....ok go ahead. I love San Diego and I am bless to be here. Talk to you all later.

Bring weights in

Yesterday was a pretty good day for me and my mission. I ate well and even though I was so close to not going to the gym because I didn’t want to drive I still went and it was a great workout too. My C25K workout program is going good so far. Yesterday was my off day of doing interval walking and jogging so decided to work on the weight machines. At the gym that I go to they have the machines set up in a circuit which basically are machines all in order to hit all your major muscles. If you go through this circuit at the gym then you are to hit all your major muscles and be done with it in a short time. I do circuit training more often then free weights because I haven’t gotten to specific in my weight training program so really just trying to be general on the weights and really work on cardio first. This was one of the reasons why I started up at the gym to bring in the weights into my program. Also during lunch weight training is a great way to get some exercise in and not sweat too bad even though I still do, yuck. After my workout the rest of the work day was a breeze. My team had a game yesterday and even though it was a nail biter we still pulled it out and won. Ok everyone that is about all for me today. I shall talk to you all later. The weekend is here and still many things to do and we all know there are many challenges that need to be over come. Good Luck

Yesterday was an overall good day. I finally decided to work towards getting into a 5k. I decided on the December Jingle Bell 5k here in the city. I have not signed up but yesterday during lunch was my first workout on the C25K workout program. C25K is basically a couch to 5K workout program that was posted on this site http://www.coolrunning.com/engine/2/2_3/181.shtml that I believe many people use. I think there are different versions but this is the one that I found. It was pretty low key yesterday but a good push and a push that I needed. Of course I had many obstacles that I need to get over before I started this program. Well yesterday morning I packed my bag to workout like I usually but what was different yesterday was that at work we needed to get all dressed up because of important people coming in that day, so I needed to pack more than usual. When lunch time came and I had made my decision on the C25K program I was pretty excited to go workout but when I went to go change of course I forgot a few things. My glide which I bought last weekend and basically that is to help what I call the chub rub when walking. I have used it twice and it is going pretty good. Now the glide was not a big deal because I have been without since then so I knew how to work it but then I looked and I forgot my SOCK, not both just one SOCK. So after a laugh at myself I just threw on the one SOCK that I had and went sockless on the other foot and OMG did that feel funny. I got through my workout and I was proud of myself because I didn’t give up and honestly it was a great workout. It is hot here in San Diego and I was dripping sweat but it felt really good. I offered to anyone to join me for the 5k and I actually got a couple takers. I will keep you posted on my workouts and how my C25K is doing. Talk to you all later.
