Today I kicked off the 1800 Minute Challenge with a 3 mile jog around the block and a decent stretching session. Penny accompanied me on the run, but she's not the greatest running partner because she tends to pull me all over the place. More mileage I guess?
The 1800 Minute Challenge involves logging 1800 minutes of exercise between today, April 1 and May 31. The goal is to get ready for summer weather and feel better about your body. Since having Isaac in January, I have been able to shed all by 10 pesky pounds. I'm ready to get rid of that extra flab. As my loving husband says, " It takes 9 months to make it, it will take 9 months for it to go away." Bah - I'm ready now! At least he loves me, extra baby fat and all!
It does, however, feel amazing to get out and run again. I was having some knee issues, but today everything felt pretty good. I'm definitely sore. I pulled a weird muscle in my back, I think from lugging around Isaac's car seat? I have oodles of massage gift card money to spend, so I need to sign up and get one. I also can't wait for my Young Living Essential Oils kit to arrive in the mail so I can start oiling up and remove some of the pain that way. I can't wait to try them out!
