It’s about -1 tonight when I went for my jog, I started during the second intermission. \u00a0I remembered and did some deep breaths during my warmup walk and during my first of 7 jog sessions. \u00a0I am guessing it is the breathing but it did feel a little easier to get started and after my first and even second jog session I was actually feeling pretty ok. \u00a0They were slow jogs though but nothing like the gasping and hoping it was going to end soon sessions I had on day 1. \u00a0This program actually does seem to be working, however despite the stronger than normal start I had this session I wasn’t able to maintain it all throughout, however I did do better than before. \u00a0The defeat felt like it was less due to breathing and cardio and more due to my calf muscles cramping up which I think is normal since most of the run was on moist soft ground that had a lot of give. \u00a0It is forgiving on my bones but I guess it requires some extra excretion from my calves to compensate. \u00a0One session I was feeling the burn and I was able to force myself to the full 60 seconds which felt like a small win since usually I would have just stopped early when it is usually 10 seconds to go. The downside is that after during the walking session I was immediately just thinking of how nice and easy it would be just to walk home, I wanted to take the easy way out however I knew if I gave in and did that I would just sit on the sofa next week and not do anymore c25k and just give up on it all, this I think will be ultimately the struggle that I will have every week. \u00a0I thoroughly enjoy doing nothing, just sitting back and relaxing, I don’t enjoy exercising and I don’t understand how people could, haven’t they sat down before and watched a movie and than another while drinking a hot chocolate and having some garlic bread. \u00a0That is the life I want to have everyday.<\/p>\n
Anyways back to the c25k, I will be repeating the first week again, I can’t quite imagine jogging for 90 seconds at a time 7 times, since I can’t do it consistently enough 60 seconds at a time. \u00a0I will need to maybe set aside a shirt or two specifically for jogging, I am a hot, sweaty mess. \u00a0I do have a couple of shirts that I used for painting. \u00a0I just need to find a spring jacket since I don’t want to stink up my current one since I take it to work, and as I said I am a hot, stinking mess.<\/p>\n
I babysat Hudson for a while today, Chris too I guess since he went for a nap too, luckily he didn’t need a diaper change as well. \u00a0I took some pictures of Hudson for Easter, I hope something from it turns out ok and usable. \u00a0While his parents were out I got him to fill up a basket full of plastic Easter eggs and than I poured them all on his head while trying to tak pictures of the falling eggs. \u00a0It didn’t work out too well. \u00a0After getting him to fill up the basket 2 more times I thought it might be easier to just put the eggs in front of him instead of on his head since he didn’t seem to impressed. \u00a0I guess he just didn’t have the heart to make some art like I did. \u00a0I also figured out it would be easier to do it on the sofa since the eggs scatter a lot less so it was easier to collect them again in order to dump them on him.<\/p>\n
Yay plex can stream music from iTunes to chromecast now which I have conveniently plugged into my surround sound. \u00a0I have to try the subwoofer on another plug, it doesn’t seem to be on, I hope it is alright and not broken.<\/p>\n
