2nd C25K run

The original plan was to alternate WiiFit workouts with C25K, but yesterday was just too busy, so it was this week's day off. Today I did the second run, from my house to Graceda Park, sort of a figure 8 around Graceda and Enslen Parks, then home. If you saw the Dr. Phil episode with that tragic 18yo girl who ran off with her high school teacher, this park is where they were. Just another joy of living in Modesto, lol.

I expected to be almost too sore to walk after the first workout. The last two days were ones where I had to hurry across campus a few times to take classes to the computer lab, so I got some walking in at work and had a moment to take stock of sore spots. Seems like the places where my fat jiggles it jiggles the muscles below and causes a bit of soreness. Weird but true. Just enough soreness that it reminds me I exercised, which kind of makes me happy, but not sore enough to complain.

The biggest battles I'm fighting are between my ears. I thought about making dinner before heading out, folding the laundry, playing some Bejeweled, there's a million just-another-minute things, and I ignored them and went out FIRST. Definitely a lot more energy spent coming up with reasons not to run than it actually took to just do it.




I'll try to post a video now and then...I'm hoping there will be a little bit of physical difference to document. http://youtu.be/GwmBOgTDISk
