my journey to health

So I do coffee!!! Generally we try to do this once a week, with a bunch of what I loosely refer to as ladies – now none of us are really the fitness types, and yet today I sat there listening to us all talking about our eating, the exercises we have done etc – I blame Amy, Amy is my personal trainer and also my friend.  Amy coffees with us and I am starting to wonder if she is a witch, it is like she has cast a spell over everyone and all of a sudden we are no longer slovenly coffee mothers with feral children running free, we are now woman who want to exercise and enjoy(I also use this word loosely) doing it, we are watching our eating and laughing at our mistakes – our children are still feral and run free though!!!

It is awesome, it is awesome to have others who are sharing this with me, it makes it so much easier to bounce stuff off others and motivate each other!! I am very lucky to have these crazy bitches in my life!

Today before coffee I went to the stadium and did my workout, I have been trying to push myself to do a few extra of everything each week this week I did 40 star jumps and 7 interval runs – stoked!  Last week with amy, we decided to run the stairs, I made it up I think it was 3 flights running then we walked the rest, on monday with vanessa we ran them again and we made it up 4 flights, then walked one flight, ran one flight for four flights.

Well today I went to the stadium and I ran the whole stairs, I lie actually I missed the top two, why, because my legs just refused I physically could not do them, my brain was telling me two more, my legs were saying fuck you I am done!!!!
So proud though that I could even begin to do something like that
