Good morning, gang! I have some meetings today which means I have to eat out for lunch. On days like this, I eat a lower calorie breakfast and dinner to compensate. I have Zumba tonight which will also help. I went to the gym last night and surprised myself in a good way. I started my training for a 5k in March. I'm not a runner so I started with 30 minutes on the treadmill with intervals of 2 minutes jogging and 3 minute walking. I did that for two intervals (after a 5 min warm up) and then realized it was too easy. I was able to go 5 minutes straight jogging and ended up jogging a total of 12 of the 30 minutes. That may not sound like a lot to most but what many don't know is that I have a mild heart condition and just a year ago I couldn't run more than 30 seconds at a time without my heart rate going nuts. I'm only 3.4 lbs away from ordering my heart rate monitor so I can't wait!

Good Morning Everyone! Welcome to week 3 day 3 of our challenge. I'm taking today as a rest day because I have a horrible sinus headache. I will double up tomorrow to make up for it. Everyone is doing great, pushing through even with many obstacles. I was thinking of doing another challenge once this one is finished to give us a head start on the new year. If anyone is interested let me know. Take care everyone and happy Hump Day!!
