but i went anyway. i had to - i'm already behind. i didn't feel that great when i got out of bed this morning. my lower back was bothering me slightly more than normal. not sure what's up with all that but its been an issue for some time now. i just hope that when i lose some weight it will go away. that and the snoring. a girl can hope, can't she?
i went to the gym tonight because it was cold and dark out by the time i went. because i held out as long as humanly possible. because i didn't really want to go. i don't like running on the treadmill as much - its harder for me for some reason. i can't go as fast and it seems like the run parts are never ending. so i started running and my lower back immediately started hurting. mildly disconcerting. but it stopped bothering me after a little while. and then my shins started hurting. not hurting exactly, but it felt like they were pulling. it wasn't a pleasant feeling but i kept going. i hope i don't need to buy new shoes. i can't imagine that i need new shoes.
so today was much harder. and now i'm behind on week three, which i'm hoping to cram into the rest of this week. not sure how the 3 minute run will go but i'll just have to see. if worse comes to worse i'll just repeat week two, although i'd rather not.
by the way, no clue why my max hr says 218. i really don't think it got up that high. i think the highest it got was 184. maybe the hr thing in the treadmill messed it up.

Good for you for just doing it. Seriously.
First of all, you are not "behind." This isn't a race or a competition. It's about...well, sleekness. :) Jaguar! So you just go at your pace. And repeat Week 2 if you need to. I think I may need to repeat Week 4 but not sure yet. Okay, more later, have to go make breakfast lunch etc for my offspring.
if i need to go slower or repeat a week i will, but its helpful to me to try and keep up with you. otherwise i would just not do it when i don't feel like it.
Alright then, you better get your ass in gear because I am not slowing down. Is that better?
I am scared of my run tomorrow! W4D3 and the first 2 days have been so hard. But I shall do it.
don't be scared!! just do it and if you feel like you can't complete the run parts, scale back. its not the end of the world if you have to repeat a workout or even the whole week.
