Day #36

I'm baaaack.

Ok, sorry I disappeared again. I ran into some troubles at home that disrupted my workout schedule. That sounds a little weird, but it wasn't weird at all. But it's a long story and not worth telling. Long story short is that everything is fine, and now my regular routine has resumed. Anyway, while I wasn't doing Jillian Michael's Body Revolution, I was taking the dog for about 4 20 minute walks a day, so that's gotta count for something.

But, it is no replacement. Today I picked back up where I left off with day #36, which marks the start of week 2 of phase 2.

I hurt. My muscles didn't like such a long break. Got through it okay, but there were definitely things I could do much better a month ago.

I leave for London 3 weeks from tomorrow (yep, going back), so that will give me just enough time to wrap up phase 2 before I have to take another 2 week break. That's going to be rough, I can just tell now. There's no way phase 3 is going to be easy, and even worse right after a vacation.

In other non-BR news, I signed up to do a 5k with a bunch of my friends (called the color run, google it and see if there's one in a city near you). It sounds like a total blast and I'm excited that I'll finally run my first 5k. However, I also don't want to totally suck at it, so it's time to start working some running back into my workouts. It's not until the end of July though, so I've got about 3 months to prep for it.

How's everyone doing?

And....I thought I posted this last night. But I just found it. Oops.

  1. Welcome back! (again!)

    Yours is one of the first BR blogs I started reading; I definitely missed you while you were gone. Glad to hear that things are ok! I can't imagine having to pick back up after so much time off. You rock!

  2. There's a color run in my city on Mother's Day but it sold out before I could sign up. It looks so fun! You'll have to take pictures.

  3. I am doing the color run too! With my trainer's fiancé. I will warn you the course is very hilly, I was shocked the first time I ran there. If you ever want to run together let me know!
