Working out, Blogging and other "fun" things

So I am now in week 4 of the program. I wish I could report that I have been doing fabulously, but it seems as if all the reason that I have not worked out in the last few years have been catching up to me. Last week, due to a sick son, I missed a day. This week, I had to leave early on Tuesday to attend a work function. Lets not even discuss my eating habits. Andrew made a point last week that he is only with us for two hours a week (even less than that at the rate I am going) and that what we do for the rest of the time greatly impacts our results. In so many words he warned me, "Don't be mad at mid-assessments".

But all in all, my husband points out repetitively that at least I am doing something and at least I am thinking about how I shouldn't eat the bad food as I consume it. Baby steps? Maybe. As far as the workouts go, I am not fond of is keeping track of my heart rate. I'd like to think I don't have a heart on most days, so having to monitor it goes against everything I believe in. Okay, that's a bit dramatic. On the plus side, I actually love working out with weights. Its something I have never done and probably would not ever do with out the Ready, Set, Goal challenge. Andrew is great! He even convinced me to wear an "ASU" t-shirt as a oppose to my normal "Georgetown University". I figured since Georgetown won our rivalary game against Syrcause, why not support the Sun Devils this week.

A fellow goaler Niesha is trying to challenge me to do Pat's Run. Anyone else in?

  1. Hi Mina,

    I see you mentioned Pat's run. I would love more information about this as I think this is something I would be interested in. :)
