Hump day!

So excited that the week is halfway over! It also marks 4 days in a row I have worked out! Heck ya! Maybe my gym rat self is coming back! I mean it does help one of few ladies I have met here is going to be 37 weeks pregnant with twins tomorrow and hits the gym 6-7 days a week. MOTIVATION for my none pregnant self!

I finished W1D2 of C210K today! It is the 60 sec run alternated with 90 sec walking, there are 8 rounds of that with a 5 min warm up & cool down. On round 4 I decided to start at my normal 5.5 and every 10 secs up it .1 mph, it made the minute go by faster, I might do that again Friday when I run day 3.  We did Body Revolution(BR) work out, I made the assigned bfast it was amazing. It was eggs, spinach, red onion, and salmon so good! Then I met my friend who introduced me to another gym rat and we did spin. Between the 3 workouts I burned 1250 calories today! Speaking of calories here is what our side dish looked like from BR kickstart plan!


I don’t know if I mentioned before but Todd announced he is going to run a marathon! Did I mention he is crazy and twice in the past month he has started a run and ran his own half marathon? Without water or any fuel, drives me crazy when he does that. But today he only ran 4 miles and he saw a “friend”...
Yes he saw this! An alligator!!! Because we live in this now!

Pepper, I don’t think we are in San Diego anymore! Just a small amount of culture shock for our California family here in Georgia. So far we are still loving it, but have not had to deal with the gnats or humidity yet. Also I am worried will an alligator eat my little Pepper dog (our weiner dog)?

Body Revolution Day 1 and News!

Now that we are in Georgia school drop off for the younger two is 710 so we have the house kidless by 730. That meant Body Revolution attempt 2 (we started the meal plan last week before I got hit with the stomach bug) commenced. I did it along side Todd, which normally I hate working out with my sexy husband because I feel embarrassed. Today I just concentrated on finishing, it wasn't bad but I have a feeling it gets worse! Then we had bfast and lounged around.

A great thing about my move to Georgia is I have met people via facebook who are into fitness. I was invited to spin today by a lady who is 36 1/2 weeks pregnant with twins.  Yes um can I be her? Anyhow we extended the invite to the girl who totally hooked me up with my awesome new job. oh ya I haven't filled you guys in on that have I? So there was a row of nurses in spin today too! Spin Class was 45 mins long and I made it through whew!

So day 1 of Body revolution calls for two workouts we skipped cardio since I did spin and my husband ran 13.57 miles (without water or fuel, he is crazy amazing!) We followed meal plan to a T! I ate 1140 calories and burned 785 today! woot woot my fitness pal (annakay76) is mad at me but hey it'll be alright. I have drank 2 liters of a water today or maybe more, tomorrow we will look for a water machine to fill our gallon jugs so we can start the one gallon of water a day challenge again!

Ready for the BIG NEWS??

Is that not a beautiful view? Well I will be enjoying that view on April 14th! Why oh because I haven't ran a half since January 2012 when Todd and I ran Rock n Roll Phoenix!

Yes I signed up to run/walk the Iron Girl Half in Clearwater, Florida! I am excited, I know I haven't properly trained but my foot is finally feeling better (it gets a bit tender/achy after a run), and I will be using Jeff Galloway's run walk run method at a 1:1 ratio.  So even if I am not 100% ready this view and the mini vaca we are going to make out of it is sooooo worth it! If anyone wants to meet up and enjoy this amazing race here click here!
