Can you say "Mac Truck"

That is what I feel like hit me.  WOW!  I cannot believe how working out at the next level can really put my body in check.

Today is a work day.  Yes, I have an office job.  I work at ESPN and I've been job sharing for 8 years now and I work every Thursday and Friday.  The downfall to an office job?  I don't move too often and I stiffen right up.  I look like an old maid when I get out of my chair.  I'm not used to sitting for more then 2 minutes.

Grigs (Sue Grigely) came to the Y to work out with me at lunch today.  It was a nice treat having her there.  She felt bad because my workout buddy, Jill Hogan, has moved to Japan for 3 - 5 years so Grigs felt the need to keep my spirits up.  Thanks buddy!

WOD - Cindy (5 pull-ups/10 push-ups/15 sit-ups - as many reps in 20 min) followed by a 5K run.  The Cindy part wasn't too bad.  I can handle the strength training however the 5K was beyond miserable.  I ran 3.1 miles in 28:12 running at 6.6mph and .5 incline.  I was NOT happy!

Grigs gave me her headphones and jamming music because she felt so bad for me.  Your the best Grigs!  But in the same breath I could have beat her silly.  She made me run at .5% incline.  She tried to get me at 1.0% but I was not going to do that.  While I'm ready to give up at 1 mile then 2 mile; I see her running at 7.6 mph like it's nothing.  Then she proceeds to run at 8.0 mph then 8.6 mph.  I'm ready to pass out and puke while her run is like second nature.  I did not give up because Grigs would have slapped me silly!  Finally I was done. 

FOOD - Still haven't touched any sugar.  I have to honestly admit that I'm doing okay with this.  Still getting vague headaches but nothing major.  But when I'm hungry.  WATCH OUT!  I get cranky very fast and I want to eat instantly.  With kids that doesn't always happen which makes me more angry.  During my run I felt it though.  I should have eaten more before hand.  I guess a handful of peanuts doesn't do too much.  Grigs came to the rescue with a yummy protein bar.  I had 1/2 on my way back to work so I'd survive.

WEIGHTLOSS - Who the hell knows.  I won't weigh in until February 3rd.  I'm going to give my body a good solid month for detox and reforming.  30 pounds is my goal and I'm very positive about it!

Time for bed!  Goodnight!
