I did a 6km run around a lake this afternoon with some girls from my running group and I can highly recommend - NEVER EVER RUNNING WITH A PRAM!!!!! DD is 12kg, the pram is about the same, bloody heavy steel thing and a monster to push! I gritted my teeth though and did it non-stop in 40mins. The other girls took off in front of me but I didn't let them not being there stop me, I knew they'd wait for me at the end and I didn't want to be too far behind them. Its amazing what pride will push you to do! I'd never run with the pram before and I don't think I'll be doing it again if I can avoid it!
Anyway, do you girls find it amazing how quickly cardio fitness is aquired? I find muscle fitness takes so much longer. My muscles seem to hurt a long way before I run out of puff. Are you the same?

I'm still around, still walking that's about it.
Winter, I'll take you up on that offer of going running with me! Now that can be part of my goal - to be able to run 5km so I can go running with Winter :)
MG, I'm in Perth. I'm going to google pelvic instability and see what I find. I don't know if it's just coincidental but since it's become colder my pelvis has become quite sore again, back to the point where I have to get out of bed slowly and just sit for a minute before I stand up and take my weight, otherwise I feel like a cripple and have to grab onto something. It's really strange because once I am up moving around, I feel fine. It's just after I have been lying or sitting down for awhile, it's like everything relaxes and gets stuck?! And during the night as I often lay on my side as I feed/co-sleep with DD, my bottom hip (the one I'm lying on) is dead numb. I think it's time for more physio again.
Heather, playing with the kids is great fun. DS loves me chasing him around the backyard :)
Walking has been my only exercise and I walk wherever I can (to shops, playgroup, etc). Still aiming to go back to pilates as I really think this will help with my pelvis. So hoping to do that in the next few weeks. I have a DVD but I find I never do it. I'm more of a class person. If it's booked in then I am more likely to go and do it.

Can't wait Eluned! Will be great fun!

Winter: I find I get sore muscles for getting out of breath too. I can go through a Combat and Attack class and feel like I could then go for jog. Then I get sore muscles. I suppose it's good as in my body is getting the work out it needs.
MG: How are those niggles going?
I didn't go to Attack on Sunday, as we went out for the day. Lot's of walking and so on so that was ok. I wont make Combat on Wednesday as I am taking DS2 to see the Wiggles!!
I had a stiff thigh muscle yesterday, I am assuming it's from Combat as she had us doing lunges. So I really need to go and stretch it out with a good work out...
So it will be back to Attack again for me on Sunday.

Winter I also find the same. My muscles give out first. Work through it and you will be amazed how quickly it builds though!
Eluned I am finding the same with the colder weather. It is annoying because I'm trying so hard to avoid my meds. I'm thinking of getting myself some long singlets to wear to keep my back and hips warm. God I feel old!
Heather Enjoy the Wiggles!
Nothing from me. Did a walk last night which hurt my knee but I'm ok. PT tomorrow. Really nothing to report. Sorry. Bit boring really.
I went out Friday night as planned. Was an awesome night but a wee norty! I had a yummy ****tail but no idea what was in it other than lime! Then shared a bottle of wine with a friend. And some more ;) We got an attack of the guilts shortly before midnight and thought we should walk it off and sober up or we might get into trouble from our trainer! So off we stumbled down Smith Street looking for something to sober us up! :rofl: we had a kebab... and boy did I regret it Saturday! :rofl: It was an awesome night though.Even if I DID feel a wee ill Sautryday! ROFL

I'm joining in finally - I have been on the fitness bandwagon for about 8+ weeks now and totally into it. Going to gym at least 3 times a week, one of those PT session which I am so glad I did. Initially I didn't lose weight - if anything put on a kilo or two :-/ But now its gone back down so that was a little demotivational, but I can only think its muscle? Because my body has changed: more tone and is looking different, and I am feeling more awesome than ever. More energy (still a little low due to very low iron - at 7!) but working on that too with my naturopath. So many positives. Look forward to going all the time!
