I know... I know... I have been very slack updating confessions... but I have been working my butt off literally.. I have done so much exercise over the last week... when I came home I had enough energy to shower and fall into bed.. even food lost its charm.. don't panic I still ate..
The last Confessions was last tuesday so I will go from there
Wednesday: The girls had netball training so I went for a run - thoroughly enjoyed it.. I love the buzz I get from exercising..
Thursday: I went for a run through 'The Tuarts'.. a beautiful pathway in local area, that goes through thick bushland.. birds everywhere.. just gorgeous... I checked out the signs and it seems from one gate to the other and back again is 2.47kms... and I ran the whole way... and it only took me 20mins.. very chuffed with myself I have to tell you..
Friday: I had received a leaflet advertising a beach bootcamp at the end of our street.. I was a little nervous but after walking the girls to school for walk to school day, I rode my bike to bootcamp.. and stayed for two sessions.. the first a good all round cardio workout...I came close to vomiting but managed to hold it together... after a 15mins rest we moved onto a Core session... Now this is how the session went... Crunches ... small jog... plank.... small jog... crunches... small jog... plank... small jog.. get the drift ... so I was feeling really proud of myself surviving 2 sessions.. I got back on my bike for the ride home.. low gear all the way.. now when I got home.. I got off the bike and did a little Bridget Jones... My legs just didn't want to work.. I didn't make swim squad.. had trouble staying awake.. girls went though..xx
Saturday: Girls off to Umpiring training and netball... I have 2 hours to kill so on go the training shoes and I did the housework in record time.. washing, floors and dusting... an hour and a half... worked up the heart rate and quite a sweat..
Sunday: Mothers Day... My darling little girls wrote in a card for me saying ... I could ask them to do anything I want with them... So onto the bikes we went and rode to the lighthouse and back.. now before I tell you how far... you need to understand that when we left the sun was shining.. a little breezy but all things considered quite a nice day for a ride... then about mins into the ride the wind picks up and some very forboding clouds start rolling in.... about 40mins in the rain starts to come down and for some reason we start giggling.. We decided to stop at McDonalds for Mothers Day cake to let the worst of the rain stop.. Then home again and the sun has again come out and the end of the ride is lovely.. pulling into the driveway and we have done 24.7kms... where we decide to crash out on the lounge with a chick flick and a Nanny Blanket.. feeling very proud of ourselves...
This week we have a couple of small rides to do to prepare for next sunday..So exciting...xx
