Got up early this morning to go for a run. My aim was to try and complete 25mins continuously but only got through 20mins.
I had started well and went through the first 10 minutes comfortably but after hitting the little hill, things got very difficult and all I could focus on was the pain. My breathing was ok and my leg muscles weren't particularly sore so I guess by pain, I actually mean fatigue. I was going so slowly and lost considerable speed and was well behind where I should have been at the 20 min mark. Bearing in mind tonight's PT session, I felt it in my best interest to call it day.
I used iMapMyrun for the first time and although the GPS worked fine and I was happy with the 5 minute voice over of time, distance, current and average pace, it failed repeatedly to connect to the server and upload my run. I still can't get it to connect. :-(
Despite that, I shall hang on to the app until I can find something that does the job a little better.
Yesterday I received the schedule for the UBTP (Ultimate Body Transformation Program). Looks like it is going to be one heck of a month. Looking forward to Boot Camp on Saturdays while hoping to shine during Fitbox.
The morning sessions are only 45 minutes so things shouldn't be quite as tight as I had previously anticipated. Next week will allow me to get a feel for what to expect before trying to work in the hike to work in the morning.
From the email addresses it looks like most of the clients are girls. Hoping the boy won't feel too outnumbered. Bit concerned also about the part that says something along the lines of us being assigned a workout buddy. Want to stick with the boy cause it will motivate me to train hard and push the limits. Although someone else who may not be as strong will be great for my ego, I need to work hard so that I'm in form for December.
A little unsure what some elements will be like and suspect 45 minutes of core will be hellish but play it by ear.
Running will probably hit the backburner but will assess again when I know what's involved.
Last day of work today and off to a slow start. Looking forward to the weekend but still feeling generally apprehensive about life. At least I'm getting sleep.

"apprehensive about life" oh now i feel like an insect caught in a spider's web.
This bit does not connect with all the above...does it tell a story by not telling it?
I hope you meant to say: apprehensive "about all this" and meaning the above...
For peace of mind i will assume thats what you mean since posting on the run! lol! literally! ;)
