Good day!
Well, I'm happy. Happy happy happy. Doing the happy dance! My rotation called for a 45min steady state run, so I hopped out the door tonight and gave it a go. I was expecting to have to alternate running and walking, but instead did a 5 min walk warm up, 35 minute run (no breaks needed!), and a 5 min walk cool down. I used Cathe's Intensity Series CD in my player, and really, really enjoyed it. I finished the run during "Rainmaker", and had to quench the urge to do some tap-repeaters a la Interval Six (my favourite of IMAX2). Cardiovasularly speaking, the run felt very comfortable and easy. I could easily have gone on longer. My left knee started squawking part way through, and was the reason I stopped when I did. I'm tickled pink. I haven't run in at least 2 years. Cathe's cardio workouts are truly advanced enough to do some great conditioning.
Wendy - I used to do a lot of 5km races, and a few 8kms. Ergo, my large stack of t-shirts (they're always part of the race kit). Personally I find outdoor running easier than on the treadmill, but the only treadmill I've ever tried is that cheap one I bought after Christmas, so it's probably not a good comparison. HSC is one of my favourite workouts (love the music).
Kim - I'm so happy to read some positive statements from you. You've struggled with that foot for so long now. You deserve a huge pat on the back for being so persistent with working out.
Phyllis - how do you do wall squats? I read the BBW breakdown, but she doesn't explain what these are.
Meaghan - I *hate* genie hops, too. That's my least favourite interval of IMAX2. IMAX Extreme is a really fun workout.
Gym Mom - extra rest days are definitely necessary some times. I hope you have a good workout today.
Annette - you must be so relieved to be able to do step without foot pain. I hope everything continues to mend well.
Jane - I'm sure your "yard" work is keeping you in great condition!
Tammy - you never told us yesterday how you liked the TLT BBBB yesterday (since I don't have that workout, I have no idea what I just typed!).
Okay, I'd best get going. This post is long enough! "Hello" to the whole gang. Have a great day!
