i am going to start posting my activity logs in an effort to keep doing them. the activity logs were weekly assignments for my kine class this past semester. i think they started in september and ran through december 5th. while doing these activity logs, i lost about 10 lbs.; hence my desire to keep them going. my first post will cover from december 6 until present. after this post, i hope to post weekly.
so...
READY?
SET?
GO!!!!!!
Thursday, December 6:
Jogged for 40 minutes. (i didn't write down how much i walked, but i'm sure i walked at least 5. i will usually walk about 5 minutes after every run, so i don't think i will include my walking minutes.)
Saturday, December 8:
Denise Austen Pilates DVD for 45 minutes.
Sunday, December 9:
Jogged for 50:15 (should i even include my 15 seconds? perhaps i should just round down.)
Monday, December 10:
Jogged for 37:47 (mondays are suppose to be my "easy runs," although they don't feel easy at all! :)
Tuesday and Wednesday, December 11 &12: OFF FOR WORLD LIT FINAL ON TUESDAY AND MUCH NEEDED REST ON WEDNESDAY!!
Thursday, December 13:
Jogged for 42:17 (i got off the written running schedule, but i've decided i'm not going to worry about that because if i do i will probably scrap my whole routine.)
Sunday, December 16:
I jogged for 1:01 (Yes, ladies and gentlemen, i actually jogged for a whole hour!! i can't believe it myself!)
Monday, December 17: OFF. this is the day that i bombed my math exam, thus i was defeated thoroughly and could not get myself to do any type/form of exercise.
Tuesday, December 18:
Jogged for 35.17 and walked for 7 minutes.
so there you have it, my first activity log entry. something i learned from my kine class is to set short term goals. i would like to run a 10k in january, but the weekend of the race is not a good time for me. therefore, i think i might have to 10-3 that goal. i'm hoping to find another race that i can do around that time, or maybe i'll just have to wait for february.
on another note, my knees have started to bother me. i hope that it is only because i need new tennis shoes and not because i need to stop jogging. :(

That's why I havne't been able to jog. My knees. I think it is because I sit on the floor for my preschool job quite a bit and I haven't been paying too much attention to how I sit. They ache when I get home at night. I think I will start an activity log. You've inspired me. I will keep it separate from my other blog, but will link it. I like the idea of a food log, too. I always lie to myself about how much coffee I drink and how little food I eat.
