Today was the day that I had to turn my fitness around. I did run one, week one of the C25K program.
My son is 13 months old. I was getting progressively more unfit and fatter.
Excuses...i've got a few....50 hour working week,2 kids who don't really like sleep, DH going through depression, My appendix bursting, financial pressure meaning I had to quit the gym....it goes on.
But today I started again. Prior to falling pregnant I completed a 13km run as part of training for my first half marathon.
Today I did the first day of C25K which was 28 and 1/2 minutes, 8 one minute runs...and it was so hard.
I used the iphone/ipod app Get Running. It is pretty awesome. You can have your music going and a kind woman's voice tells you when you should run and when you should walk. It made me sad to think of how fit I was 2 years ago, but I am back on the road to fitness...
