Yesterday: 65min, 6.31km, 552cal
Today: 65min, 6.35km, 540cal.
October totals: 520min, 46.18km, 3887cal.
Pretty happy with that.
I am starting to run a bit. Not much. Need to work into it slowly! Kinda throwing my old plan out the window. lol Now if I could just keep my calories in check I could start losing some weight. I do well during the day, but once evening hits, it's out the window.

First (and second) workout felt great!
I was able to get on last night. Felt really good to get back into it again. I hate it when I fall off.
One thing about the treadmill, it is European so it is all metric. No worries.
Last night: 65min, 5.25km, 405cal.
Today: 65min, 5.25km, 432cal.
Not sure how I got more calories today. Same everything. My heart must have been beating faster? I should say that I did get a new heart rate monitor. Same brand and model that I had before. No GPS, but as I'm just inside anyway it doesn't matter.
So, my goals:
I know it's extremely ambitious, but there is a half marathon on 30 March. That would be super cool if I could run in it.

So, my goals:
- Get on the treadmill for at least 30 minutes 5 times a week. Sixty minutes is my ultimate goal, but I know it won't always be possible with 4 kids!
- Start running after I've gotten down to 175. Twenty pounds from where I am today.
- Get down to 150lbs by March first.

I got a treadmill today!!!
I am so super excited! I've been extremely lax since we moved. I've gained quite a bit of weight. Got the treadmill and put it together. Haven't actually done a real workout on yet. I am hoping I can after dinner, but I really don't know. My husband has to work tonight, so he's sleeping. I will definitely be on tomorrow during the baby's nap!! So excited!

In Germany now.
We moved to Germany a week or so ago. I've been walking a lot, exploring our new village. I finally went for a run through the forest today. I don't know for how long, or far, my heart-rate monitor didn't survive the trip across the ocean. I sure hope it's just the battery and nothing is wrong with it. I don't want to have to buy a new one. Although getting one with GPS would be super-cool-awesome! I do plan on starting a 30 day squat and ab challenge. I'll see if I can attach images. http://spacelifethoughts.com/PICS/30daysquathalf.jpg That is the squat one, mostly. It has a red X on the first 15 days. I have the other image already saved to my iPod. I couldn't find it on a quick Google search. Here's the abs one: http://pipersrun.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/may-challenge-30-day-ab-challenge.jpg My husband is helping me, even the kids are joining in! I did day one today, and will again tomorrow, rest the 31st and start into the challenges on 1 June. I may look for an arm/push-up challenge as well. But I don't want to take on to much at once, either.
Doesn't seem that hard: 30 day pushup challenge

Wednesday: 28min, 2.28mi, estimated 328cal. It was to dark by the time Precious calmed down for me to run outside. Went to the gym. I also couldn't fine the chest strap for my hear rate monitor, so I'm just going off what the treadmill said.
Today: 27min, 2.2mi, 335cal. Outside, found my chest strap! 3 min faster than my first run. That's impressive!! :)

Went for a run
Last night, after dinner. 2.2 miles, took me almost exactly 30min. After not running in over a year I am quite happy with myself. I wanted to go again tonight but my 6 year old has her kindergarten music program. I feel ok. My legs are a big sore today. Hopefully I can go again tomorrow. There is a half marathon on 5 May here. I don't know if I'll be ready for all that, but I do believe there is also a 5k. Wish there was a 10k.
