Workout Wednesday

Thursday, Jan 1 – started running again.  5k (walk 2 run 1).  This was our first snowfall and a blizzard the whole time but we got it done.  (Summary of run in "Happy New Year" post.)

Friday, Jan 2 – off

Saturday, Jan 3 – it was -20 wind-chill but we still braved the cold and bundled up and got out.  We even talked one of our protégés into running with us.  Great time to introduce her to cold weather running.  Twin 1 picked her up at 1030 and headed to Twin 2’s.  We weren’t sure how it would go as it was so cold but it actually wasn’t that bad.  We were definitely dressed for the colder weather.  The trail was all clear so we did a few km’s in the subdivision and a few on the trail.  We did 6k and again did the walk 2 run 1.

Twin 1 was also supposed to start P90X but the football playoffs and Kardashian marathon were on and she couldn’t tear herself away from the TV.

Sunday, Jan 4 – Twin 1 did the Plyometrics video.  She could not walk afterwards and still cannot.

Monday, Jan 5 – Twin 1 did the Shoulders & Arms and also the Ab Ripper video right after work as her hubby was kind enough to take the dogs out so she could.  There was also a run scheduled but we failed on that. The temps indicated it was -2 but with windchill it was about -20.  It felt way colder than on Saturday.  Twin 1 couldn’t stop coughing after her workout and is still fighting something so bailed on Twin 2.  Twin 2 was supposed to do her treadmill but didn’t.  Twin 1 has found a treadmill on BLT Facebook site and may buy it if it’s still available as all week it’s supposed to feel like -20 to -30.

Tuesday, Jan 6 -  Twin 2 ran on the treadmill for 30 minutes (coach to 5k program - walk/run = 3km).
Twin 1 was scheduled to do the Yoga X video but by the time she took the dogs out (1hr at Ashburn in -19), got stuck in traffic, ate supper it was 8pm.  The video is and hour and  half and she hates yoga so settled for Jillian Michaels Yoga Meltdown which is only 30 min.  (but felt like forever).  A workouts a workout.
