First Monday Training
This morning I ran the prescribed training exercise which consisted of 1 min run / 1 min walk for 30 minutes. I felt good for the first 20 minutes. Then my leg muscles started to burn and ache, the running started to get challenging. I just kept thinking "I can do this". If I just follow the Beginner's training schedule, I can make it to the start line and the finish line. I just need to take it one day at a time. I felt so incredibly happy on my way to work and the feeling lasted all day. I did have a weird pain above my right knee in the morning. It went away in a 1/2 hour. Weight: 120 pounds Breakfast: 1/2 power bar, gatorade Snack: cheese, apple sauce Lunch: 2 soy chicken patties, 1/2 of a yucky tasting brownie from the vending machine Snack: Two oatmeal Toastables Dinner: Chicken pot pie, apple sauce, tapioca pudding
