...and feels good.

This week was a challenge because I traveled on business for 4 days. Airports, hotels and convention centres don't offer much in the way of healthy food choices but I managed as best I could, having fruit for snacks. Coming home I realized I was coming down with a head cold which was going to railroad my plans to work out Friday but I had a good nights sleep, popped two Tylenol cold pills and decided to go on the treadmill instead of sneezing and snorting through an hour long class. I wasn't sure I would be able to keep up in the class anyways, since I was still feeling jet lagged from the flights.

The last time I was on the treadmill, I did 30 mins total, 5 of which I jogged. It was a push to do it, but I felt awesome then. That was nothing compared to how I felt today. I brought music with me this time and when I was 5 mins into the jogging portion and I was starting to feel tired, Mr. roboto came through on my headphones and the beat matched exactly what I was doing and I went ahead and did another 5 mins of jogging!

10 mins of jogging - double what I did a week & a half ago!!!! I did a good cool down and just as I was about to step off, 2 friends came by and told me how good I looked grooving to my music while I was running! Loved that feeling!

Top speed 6.2 kms/hour for 10 mins.
2.2 kms distance covered

I was going to go longer than 30 mins but there was some preprogrammed time that slowed the machine down right at 30 mins and I couldnt' figure out how to change it. Silly thing.

Day 10 without Coffee from Tim Hortons or Starbucks.

Feeling good.
