it feels good to get up early (sort of)
Yesterday was pretty awesome. I actually made it to the gym for the 6 am step class and afterward, swam 5 laps. I learned that it take 35 laps to swim a mile in my gym’s pool so 5 laps is what, barely 1/8 mile, but still…I did it. Surprisingly, this got me to over 6,000 steps by 7:30 am. Sweet!
Then,I went and got a new tattoo. This is the tattoo I have had planned for many many years. It’s pretty, but it turned out way bigger than I wanted/expected and I can’t swim for 2 weeks.
Anyway, on the food front, yesterday was not so awesome. I ate 2 meals and both were out at restaurants. Felt gross all night through this morning. My NS shipment should be here tomorrow and I am pretty stoked. The next 2 months will be tough because I LOVE to eat out and I probably eat lunch out 3 or 4 times a week.
I know I can do this, and if I do, then both my body and my wallet will be happier.
Today, I did week 1, day 1 of a couch to 5K program. What is couch 2 5K program you might ask? It’s a program to take you from being a non-runner to running a 5K. You can find a lot of information about 5K training on the internet these days. I do not like to run. I do not think I want to run a 5K. But, I do want a runners body.
