Today I woke up having one of *those* days. I was still in a funk from the night before, and I felt bloated and sluggish.
You know the feeling like you magically somehow gained 20 lbs overnight despite what the scale, which is obviously lying to make you feel better, says?
Yeah. That's how I felt.
I dragged myself out of bed and returned a voice mail from my S.O. saying he'd gotten out of work early, and wanted to meet up early. So I threw on clothes, grabbed the gym kit, and flew out the door.
I totally forgot to weigh myself this morning. *sigh*
At the gym we decided to just go for it and hit the treadmills for half an hour. I did a 5 minute walking warmup, then ran for fifteen minutes, walked for two, ran for five, walked for 30 seconds, then ran till the end of the half hour. I actually sprinted for the last minute too. I'm kinda proud of myself for that. I did a 5 minute cool down then hit the mats for strength.
I did day two of week four of the hundred pushup challenge, did 25 for my max set again. I did some extra arm work, and three sets of crunches: sensei mark specials, ab chops, and side crunches. I did some squats and then a lot of stretching.
After the workout we grabbed food and I totally blew my good work away with a turkey club wrap and a side of fries. I made up for that somewhat by walking from battery park to canal street before hopping on the subway to head to work.
It is DAYMN hot out there today folks.

Oh god, I hear ya on the bloat day. I had one of those myself - I swear I had a few beers last night and got my monthly Lady Time and all of a sudden it's like somebody injected me with ten extra pounds of weight overnight. ICK! It's the irrational side of our brain talking, I promise.
Awesome work on the running! I'm back on the treadmill tomorrow, can't wait :0)
