2010 Summer/Christmas Challenge #2

Awesome work Raupe!! Interval running is my absolute favourite exercise to do. I used to do it on the tready, run for 12km/hr for 3 minutes, then walk at 6km/hr for 2. 15 minutes of that and I was knackered! Interval running is better than just steady running because your body still burns calories after you're finished.

There's an awesome running program you can do - it's called the Couch to 5km. Works you up to running 5km slowly - it's awesome!! Want me to PM you the link?

As for me, I didn't get on the cross trainer this week. There's a number of reasons for that - the main reason is that it's in the garage and the garage stinks of paint fumes from when DH painted the garage floor when we first moved in. Makes me feel sick so he is moving it to the living area for me. It also means I have loads more chances to get on it because I can do it when DD is actually awake - I'll sit her on her play mat and do it while she is playing and she'll be able to see me! Awesome!!
I've also just had no mojo this week...... still feeling fat and ugly at the moment, not myself at all. Meh.

Anyway, DD is napping just now and I have logged my food FOR THE WEEK into Calorie King so I am set for a good week ahead. Am aiming for a 30 minute walk each day with DD in the pram and 30 minutes minimum on the X-trainer each day too. Totally do-able despite another full on week.

It's all good.
