1st Week Fitness Kickoff Success

I had an excellent fitness kickstart last week, and I am planning to continue my momentum this week as well. Because trapeze class was on break last Friday, I had scheduled a private lesson for Tuesday. And, then trapeze goes back to it's normal schedule on Friday. So, I have 2 trapeze sessions this week.

This morning I was down to 118 lbs (from over 121 last week), and my waist is 27 inches. Also, yesterday I was able to do 2 pull ups unassisted (which I had only been able to do 1 - 1.5 the past couple of weeks). I think my added strength training and healthier nutrition has been helping.

So, here's what's in store for this week:

Mon - interval speed running
Tues - trapeze private lesson
Wed - 30 minute tempo run (6.5mph)
Thurs - 30 minute tempo run (6.5mph)
Fri - trapeze class
Sat - 5 mile long run (6.2mph)
Sun - upper body, lower body, abdominal strength training

I'll also add in some yoga and lots of stretching (of course). And, I'll probably do some walks/stairs at lunch as well and some 4 point crunches or pushups in the morning.
