EXERCISE JUNKIE!!
Busy weekend which included a cardio session at the gym and the evening at the Commonwealth Games Athletics Finals. They were so inspirational. I went on Sunday morning to do the 1000 steps again. When we got to the first step my trainer said "shall we run?" I laughed at her and told her to run ahead. I ran some steps but not many. But I did get to the top in 20 minutes. All up I beat my time from car to car the previous week by 10 minutes so I was pleased with that. I still thought my lungs were going to burst and my legs collapse but the run down felt great. We have decided to do it again next Sunday and follow it with a walk... The fear of the Run For The Kids (14.7km) in 2 weeks is pushing me to train even harder. I really am terrified I won't complete it before the bus comes along to pick up the stragglers...
Finally managed to find a deb dress for my daughter. The last 2 weeks have seen us trying to find one without much luck due to her small size, but we found a lovely designer on Sat and were able to hire a beautiful dress that fits E perfectly and the price was more reasonable. Ball is not till June but we were shocked to find that that was too soon for many of the places selling dresses. So that is one worry over with.
Work is still way to busy and stressful but I have been handling it without resorting to comfort eating. The exercise is definitely helping with that. Had a lovely tennis match today and felt good to be alive and well and moving around in the fresh air. Of course it helps that a lot of our tennis is accompanied by laughter rather than sweat but still it was good.
I have definitely turned into an exercise junkie and that is something I would never have believed possible 15 months ago. so YOU CAN TEACH AN OLD DOG NEW TRICKS!!!!!!
