I had the most AMAZING run today! It was 60 degrees and beautiful out, and I just couldn't imagine being inside in a gym. But I had to work out, so I went out and bought a couple of dumbbells (5 pounds and 8 pounds). Once I got home, I strapped on my trustee Nike sneaks that I bought around the time when J and I started dating (almost 5 years ago!). In fact, he was on the phone with me when I was buying them, haha. Anyway, I put on my sneaks and did a 2-minute brisk walk, and then I started to run. After 5 minutes I thought "HOLY CRAP!! I just ran 5 minutes straight!! I should see if I can run the whole time..." And guess what, I DID!! I ran for 25 minutes straight. And I am not a runner. So that means that my working out 3 times a week have made me much stronger and fit. I then came home and did 40 minutes of strength training. I am so happy. I cannot express how excited I am to report this exercise triumph!
Oh and I also made shrimp stir fry for dinner. What a fabulous day =D
Yay! That is so great! Maybe that guy in the gym was right, you are a runner! ;)
