Best Workout Ever

If you would have told me even a couple weeks ago that I could make it on treadmill for 2 full miles I would have never believed you. In fact, I had just made it to one mile on April 29, and remember being very proud to make it that far. Well, today I did it. I surpassed every previous record. I went 38 minutes on the treadmill, cooled down for 2 minutes on the exercise bike. On the treadmill I went 3.4 mph, getting my heart rate to 161 and made it to 2 full miles exactly.

My goal was 2 miles in 40 minutes with a 3.5 mph speed. If I can reach that tomorrow, then I am going to extend my total workout in hte morning to 45 minutes, cooling down with 5 on the bike (if I don’t sit a few minutes it’s hard for me to make it out to the vehicle because of back pain.

Then I will begin to supplement with some evening walking outside or maybe even get on that nice bike that we bought me a couple years ago.

Is anyone else out there dieting or working on new habits? I’d love to hear about it if you want to post it in the comments section. Last time I encouraged everyone to join me, everyone else may have been successful but I wasn’t. Now that I’m doing well, maybe we can encourage one another once again.
