C25K Week 1 Day 3 again!
Benjamin came with me today! He also started C25K and is trying to workout more! But he hadn't done day 3 yet. He's still not 100% since his ACL repair surgery, so we went more slowly that I did yesterday. But it was super pleasant!
Couch to 5K Week 2 Day 3 might not have turned out the way I wanted it to, but it turned out the way I needed it to.
▪︎
I didn't run very fast. I'm bloated and sluggish today. I'm not even going to check what my paces were because I know I'll just get upset with myself.
▪︎
Instead I'm going to focus on how good it felt to push the air in and out of my lungs. How nice it felt to move my legs. I'm going to focus on this birdsongs I heard and the butterflies I saw and the sidewalk chalk murals I saw.
Seeking Active Fitblrs!
For those of you that don’t know me, I’m Kat! I’m 23, graduating in May of 2020, and getting maried in January of 2021. I’ve been struggling to get healthy and fit while a student for some time. I used to be really active on this account, and I’m hoping to get back there!
That introduction aside, my dash needs fresh new blood! If you’re an active fitblr, like or reblog this so I can check out your blog! I’m so looking forward to supporting y’all on your journies :)
Couch to 5K Week 2 Day 2
Thankful for wildflowers and the abundance of live oaks in my neighborhood 🌸🌳
I've really been struggling with anxiety and feeling like I'm not smart enough to make it through these classes online. I've been sleeping more (which takes away from studying), and is why I ran around 9am instead of 6:30am.
I will say though, I've been looking forward to my workouts more than I ever have in my life. I was feeling so helpless and crappy yesterday, and I was counting down the minutes until I could break to workout.
I didn't run yesterday, but I did do two at-home YouTube leg and glute workouts by MadFit 🍑 The day before, I did my C25K and in the afternoon did two arm workouts, the first by Blogilates (who I didn't like, she reminded me too much of a bad 80's aerobics instructor) and the second by MadFit 💪 I didn't realize what noodle arms I have! 🍝 I knew it was bad, but I didn't realize it was oh-god-I-can't-do-tricept-exercises-with-more-than-two-pound-weights bad 😬
No where to go from here but up! 👆
Monday Weigh In
Last Monday: 133.8 lbs
Today: 133.0 lbs
Weight loss since last week: 0.8 lbs
Net weight loss: 1.6 lbs
Overall, I have to be pretty happy with these results. My school schedule is such that right now I only get to work out once or twice a week. So any progress at all is somewhat surprising.
Part of me wants to be frustrated with how slowly it's going. But I'm trying to be conscious of the fact that in just 2 months I'll be done with school and hopefully live a more balanced life.
Follow Back Friday
I was inspired by @rarestsparkle to start this new tradition. I will (try to) on Fridays shoutout the cool blogs that I found this week! Brace yourselves, there are a lot this week because of my post looking for new blogs. But I’m so excited to be following every single one of these lovely people:
@endeavor-to-persevere @thewellnesskat @run-run-runblr @runningcryptid @aballancedlife @cbucks-fitness @neutral-pastel @caffienefeen @fit-slytherin @buckosphere @reinvent-yourselfff @healthifying @gymbarbie @goldensquirrel @crushingwatermelonsliftingdogs @mississippimermaid @sprintingbackwards @dropping-4-the-knotting @boringisme @inaracewithmyself @its-an-inevitability @trainingforabadge @stunning-tiger @seeking-rachel @bunbunfitness @peacelovesquats @rarestsparkle @fff-fit @rachgetsfitt @evolutionofacosfitter @compassioniscool @heidivonholster @sophfights @peach-tree-dish @runninfordogs
All of the above are active what I’ll umbrella into “healthblrs” so they’re either fitness focussed or mental health focussed. I don’t follow people with any explicit content or ED content.
Couch to 5K Week 2 Day 1! And I am gassed! I ran a little farther and a little faster than I did 2 days ago, so I'm pretty satisfied! 😌 And pretty sweaty. Part of that is on me, but part of that is just that it's so dang humid 😪
I'll tell you what though, I'm super bored of my workout playlist. So,
Please send me song recommendations! 🎶
I get particularly hyped to Girl Power™️ songs ♀️
Thanks in advance y'all!
So, I've definitely been MIA. The COVID-19 situation and transitioning to online classes my last semester in college has me stressing and struggling, not to mention other complicating factors in my life.
But I'm trying to start a new routine. I did forget to weigh myself this morning, so that's two weeks in a row with no weigh in. But again, things have been weird.
I'm going to start running using the C25K program, and this time I'm going to finish it. I hit the pavement at 6:45am, so starting my day out right!
I'm also giving myself an hour of free time a day, and I'll definitely be doing at-home workouts (probably with YouTube) a couple times a week.
