Insomnia is so not good for working out. I probably should just go to the gym when it strikes. The gym I joined is always open but somehow working out at 4 am seems wrong. I keep thinking that I will fall back asleep. So far no such luck today. It makes it hard to get a good workout in later in the day because the fatigue will hit by then. Oh well I see a sleeping pill in my future...
I'm trying to stick to a workout schedule. Here it is:
Monday- 30 day shred video and elliptical machine
Tuesday- run at the gym. I have exactly 45 minutes to go to the gym. I need to run faster so I can do some weights too. I'm a really slow runner. I' m running about a 10 minute mile right now. I'm trying to speed up each week by 30 seconds or so.
Wednesday-30 day shred video and elliptical machine. I will jog with Davey on Wednesdays and Fridays while Caitlin is at school while the weather permits.
Thursday- running at the gym again. I missed it this week so we could finish hanging Christmas lights and yard work. It looks like it might be the last nice weather day for a while. It was 65.
Friday-Probably just the elliptical machine
Saturday and Sunday- I'm going to try to walk Maximus for an hour each day to get his exercise in. But I know with crazy weekend plans he will probably miss one day. Poor pooch.
Now if I could just stick to a sensible eating plan, things would come together.
