    Day #7 (5/31)

    30 minutes walk/run on treadmill
    15 minutes on bike
    45 minutes lifting
    1020 calories burned

    first time in a while that i didn't feel motivated at the gym. still had decent results, but i didn't feel that endorphin rush i usually feel at the gym. i ended up cutting my workout short and just going home.

    Day 8- Tuesday
    My legs were sore from the walking/ jogging because someone didn't stretch after:grumble:

    1. What: medium paced walking
    2. Duration: 30 minutes
    3. Calories: probably 100 or so
    4. How I felt: good. It was as nice stretch for my legs anyway.

    Today is a barbecue at the beach and my brother is coming so I bet will will run around and play frisbee. If not I will be going to the gym tonight! Good work guys! I am feeling much better about myself and feel that even on the days I don't drip the sweat I can still be active.

    Day 9 (Thursday 6/2)
    30 mins C25K W2D2; 340 calories burned (based on last W2D1 workout as I forgot my HRM it's the same workout and I finished it quicker so hopefully it is close enough); felt slow at first and then ok for the last few runs -- turns out I beat my average time by 2 mins!
    30 mins fast walk; 220 calories again estimated based on prior similar workouts as I forgot my HRM; I felt great
