My Attempt to Get Fit

3 Mile Runs and Bikram Yoga

For the past week or so I’ve been running 3.11 miles every day and doing Bikram Yoga. Such a good feeling to sweat like that, on my way to a summer bod :)

6 mile run!

About to attempt a 6 mile run (the longest run I’ve done in a longggg time). I’m hoping my 2 3 milers yesterday will make this manageable! Wish me luck!

Attempt 1: failure, just didn’t have it in me only ran 1.65 miles interspersed with walking.

Attempt 2: non-existant… took a nap instead haha

2 months, 15 pounds… I WILL DO THIS!

I found a website that breaks down how many calories I need to lose the amount of weight I want to lose in a certain time frame.

I am 5’1” and 120 lbs. I want to be 105. That’s 15 pounds. 15 pounds in 2 months.

Week 1: 1076 calories/day and I should be 118 lbs at the end of the week

Week 2: 1064 calories/day and I should be 116.26 lbs at the end of the week

Week 3: 1054 calories/day and I should be 114.51 lbs at the end of the week

Week 4: 1043 calories/day and I should be 112.76 lbs at the end of the week

Week 5: 1032 calories/day and I should be 111.02 lbs at the end of the week

Week 6: 1021 calories/day and I should be 109.27 lbs at the end of the week

Week 7:1010 calories/day and I should be 107.52  lbs at the end of the week

Week 8: 999 calories/day and I should be 105.78 lbs at the end of the week

2 Months and I will be 105

I plan to track my calories using my fitness pal and record them in a journal and on tumblr. I will do 30 day shred and keep up my running training for my 2nd half marathon.

WISH ME LUCK!

30 Day Shred Day 3 and a 2 mile run

Feeling really good. Still struggling with doing push ups the whole time in the 2nd round and the side lunges the whole time but other than that I did the full work out today. Hopefully I’ll be noticing some changes in the next 30 days!

Day 2 of 30 Day shred

Just did the 2nd day. Definitely did a lot better than yesterday but still had to stop during some of the strength moves before she was done, I’m hoping tomorrow will be even better! Feeling good and my biceps are poppin already haha.

“Fitness Guru”

Yesterday one of the girls I work with (who is stick thin) and I were talking and she was like “So you’re pretty much my fitness guru will you help me pick out good exercise classes at my gym?”— so flattering that people see me as being “fit”.

First CrossFit class tomorrow!!!

Decided to do an Intro Class for Crossfit tomorrow am. If I like it I’ll do the Foundations course in 2 weeks and then join!! Ah I’m so excited! 

Question for your Crossfitters-How often do you go to your crossfit gym for classes?
