Get it in while you can

I decided at lunch today, after I had already worked 15 minutes into my lunch break, that I would run after work. I could leave a few minutes early and get Khloe and get at least a 2 mile run in and do some cross training. Well, I did get Khloe, it was beautiful out, and we made it home and got changed before 6pm. It was still a little light out and I did not plan to run too far away from the house (we have a few side streets I could run down to get my miles in). I made it about a half a mile and Khloe was getting "really cold mommy" and by three quarters of a mile I was loosing my sun fast. So, I made it 1.23 miles with Khloe in tow and ran for 13:03. Not terrible, but at least I did something. You can view my route here.

I got us home, fixed dinner, and fed Khloe. While she ate I did a few Body Rock routines to keep my heart rate going. Here is my workout:

2 sets of the following 4 exercises

12 Switch lunches then kick back leg forward and meet the opposite hand

12 Hanging pull ups (I put my feet in a chair for support)

12 bag pick up squats (pick up the bag, put it on a shoulder, squat, then put it down. Repeat on opposite side)

12 Tricep dips

This only took me about 10 minutes or less, but it worked me hard! I forgot how easy Body Rock is and how much work you can do in such a small amount of time. My goal is to get up tomorrow and do a Fit Test. Then, I want to run 3 miles on Thursday at lunch. Hopefully I have some good news for you! 

Here is to the next workout. Until then...

April :)
