NRTR Day 7

February 28, 2012

One week in! Did a solid 60mins on an elliptical today only interruption was by the trainer trying to give me a free training session. Which I would like but after that it's not free and that would make me sad. Otherwise the gym was uneventful. Got an episodes and 1/2 of VM watched but all I could think about was my piada sitting at home waiting for me once I got done sweating!

Did it work??

 

 

Okay so spent some more time to find a kind of way to do it…..

 

Well slap me silly.  I think I almost did what I wanted to do.  I copy and printed a screen shot to Microsoft Paint.  Then cropped that bad boy and save it as a png.  No clue why png but that is what I did. 

 

But I still believe there is an easier way….

NRTE Day 6

February 27, 2012

Holy windy day!  Beautiful day but the wind was out of control.  But that didn’t stop me from getting my run in outside! 

 

OMG just spent at least an hour trying to figure out an easy way to post the mile splits.  I see it on every other blog out in the world but cant for the life of me figure out how to do it.  UGUUGUGUGUg.  So pretty much believe me that I ran it and hopefully one day soon I will figure it all out.

Dinner was a nice plate of whole wheat pasta with alfrado sauce and carb.  Yum.  And made some homemade garlic cheese bread.

Now that I am highly annoyed I am off of here to shower and read a book.

NRTE Day 5

February 26,2012

Since Sunday's are not a normal workout day for me I was shocked at how easy it was to get me there. I didn't put up a fight at all. I was up early to go with CG to pick up some farm equipment he bought at an auction yesterday. I have no idea what the thing does but it was 15 feet wide which made for a fun trip back. My main job was to help him back up to it when we picked it up. Got it on the first try. After we went to church we had lunch with his grandma then I headed back towards the city with a to do list. Started my laundry then I was off. I stopped at the red box to return The Help and ran to the library. After I was 1/2 way there I wish I had walked to those places instead of going to the gym but I was already set.
When I got to the gym I stepped on the AMT then stepped right back off and hit up the arc trainer. I was happy to do something different and people watch the folks on the track. 40 mins and one episode of Veronica Mars later I was done!
I'm very pleased with how my workouts have been going except I am 100% slacking at any weight training. I need to make sure and start adding that in in the next week. My lack of lazy excuses has honestly shocked me. But will I feel the same come day 25?!

NRTE Day 4

February 25, 2012

Today was my “long” run of the week. A nice 5miles was on the plan.  I am a huge wuss and refused to run outside so I took my legs to the gym and traveled around the track around 45 laps!  I had to stop after mile 1 to talk to my poor sick mom then after mile 2 to take care of business.  I haven't got my system back into a regular routine yet.

Tomorrow is Sunday which I have been making a perfect rest day for many weeks.  So I have no idea what I will want to do tomorrow.  I guess I will see what I feel like tomorrow and do it for at least 30mins! 

Off to watch The Help and do some arts and crafts projects!

NRTE Day 3

Feburary 24, 2012

Had a nice day of work planned with a very important appotinment at 2 to get my hair cut.  After that I had enough time to squeeze in a trip to the gym.  I did 45mins on the AMT.  Its been ages since I put in some quality time on the AMT.  It was a great sweat to an Episode of VM. 

Plans were to have quality time with CG and go shopping for things but he got a last min date with some coworkers so I sat at home alone.  Had I known that, I would have had more time at the gym!

NRTE Day 2

Feb 22, 2012
Today I had a nice little girls day planned with D and efm. We were going to take a nice trip to the outlet malls and blow too much money on purses. You know the normal. So I realized if I was going to stick with my workout I would need to get it in before we left. I had 3 miles on my todo list and decided I would hit the gym around 7am. That's sleeping in for me! So I did my 3 and honestly it sucked. I hate how yesterday was a great run on top of the world and today's was such a chore. I didn't even do it nonstop. Couldn't get into a groove. But it was dove the. We proceeded to do over 9000 steps at the outlets! Put me around 15000 for the day if I had been smart enough to wear my pedo to the gym!
Tomorrow it's back to work then a hair appointment. After that will be gym time. I hate to dirty up freshly did hair but that's the rules!
