Week 1 Weight Loss: I’m just beginning. Tune in next week for
that!
Today's my first day with the workouts I've been given for the
Omron Fitness Challenge with Mamavation. I've received the following message:
On Friday I received a package on my doorstep. It was my
pedometer and scale (I’ll get my strapless heart rate monitor later). I was
able to set up both products for use very easily and I even synced my pedometer
to OmronFitness.com (and linked my twitter and runkeeper accounts). Having the
dashboard online will help me with goal-setting as well as show me the progress
I’ve made in reaching short and long-term successes.
Last week I took a last-minute cross-country road trip, but twice
during that trip I was able to go running (in Augusta, Georgia, and in Lincoln,
Nebraska). I also went running on Saturday here in the frigid cold mountain
air. So while I’ve been diligent, even on the road, with my cardio
(half-marathon training, you know), I know I’ll feel the effects from kicking
things into high gear with resistance training this week. If you see me walking
funny, or involuntarily groaning, or falling out of the car when I open the
door, or falling anywhere for that matter, please – be gentle. Also, I’ll be
living in my workout clothes, I’m pretty sure.
I know that one area where I’ll really need to be diligent is that
of rest and recovery. I’ve decided that my rest days will be Thursdays and
Sundays, but every other day I’ll be sweating like the Noonan I am.*
