That’s right, we are on day 45 of 60. Three quarters of the way through, into the home stretch! Almost there! I’m actually not showing it well, but…I’m really excited about this! I can’t believe that I’ve been able to get through this far! I can’t believe how much transformation I’ve gone through, inside and out!
My morning workout was a basic Leg Day, with the newer exercises from last Wednesday, like Bulgarian Split Squats, and 1-Leg Hinge Lifts. These newer exercises aren’t my favorites, some of them are even a little tough on my knees and are a little uncomfortable, but they are also working my legs Hard! That’s a great thing, and I’ve noticed how they are leaning out my legs a bit. The other night while on the treadmill, I noticed that my legs were looking leaner, and that maybe it wasn’t special effects!
Afternoon cardio was Sprints Day, which I initially thought was going to be long and arduous, but turned out to be considerably less arduous than I thought! The notes had me starting with a 3 mile ride (1 mile run), followed by 1.5 miles once, then 2 sets of 0.7 miles, 4 sets of 0.2 miles, and 8 sets of 0.1 miles. Each of these had breaks in between ranging form 2 minutes to 30 seconds, the shorter the Sprint, the shorter the break. All total I rode the recumbent bike to 10.84 miles in under 40 minutes.
I was able to get a number of errands handled today, and then was able to get back into the program in the afternoon, after Cardio, but after than I’ve been all wrapped up today, so not much else got done for challenge tasks. I was able to tend to my Mindfulness and get my Master Class video in this morning, but not much else since then.
I did have a great conversation with one of the front desk ladies at one of my stops. Shared a great deal with me today that I won’t get into, because it’s not my story to tell. But what a great story! Thank you, Lord, for blessing me with that opportunity!
Either way I’m still excited that we are so far into the Challenge, and that there’s really only about 2 weeks left, Can You Believe It? I can’t!
