finally feeling it

I sucked it up and went to the gym last night!!  I looked up some treadmill workouts on google and found one that I thought I would try out.  This is the one I used;

0-5          4.0
5-6          5.0
6-7          6.0
7-8          5.0
8-9          6.5
9-10        4.0
10-11      6.5
11-12      5.0
12-13      7.0
13-14      5.0
14-15      7.5
15-16      4.0
16-17      6.5
17-18      5.5
18-19      7.0
19-20      5.5
20-21      8.0
21-22      5.5
22-23      7.0
23-24      6.5
25-30      4.0

Obviously it was 30 minutes and I ran it on a 1.0 incline.  It was a lot tougher then I thought it would be.  I don't get anywhere near an 8.0 on the speed and I have to say, it gave me some anxiety.  I think I lasted about 30 seconds before I had to dial it down.  I think I need to start going to the gym once a week and doing this workout until I can it without any anxiety.  I think it would make me faster.  I normally run about a 13 minute mile outside so this is for sure out of my comfort zone.

Today I am sitting at my desk with a frozen bottle of water under my foot.  It doesn't really hurt but I don't want it to start hurting again either.  Plus it kind of feels good to roll it under my arch.

Tonight I would love to do something on my Wii but I don't think we connected it when we got the new TV.  I will have to see if I can figure it out and then maybe do 30 minutes or so on it.  If not I will figure something out.  My work running friend said something about running after work today, and I brought my stuff, but I have a feeling she will go to the treadmill instead of running outside because she has a cough.  I will just leave my bag up here and run on Thursday when the weather is supposed to be in the 50's again.

I am off work on Monday and am going in to see my band doctor.  I haven't been in to see him in a very long time.  I would love to have a tiny fill but I don't think he will give it to me.  When I weighed at the gym last night after running with clothes but no shoes I was up to 115.  He said he would consider giving me a fill if/when I got to 115 so we will see.  I am also going to get a facial.  Really looking forward to that.  I should get up early and go to the gym that morning since my appointments don't start until 11:30 but it is so hard for me to get my ass in gear!

All this talk about exercise is making me hungry.
