How are you?

I've been doing well this month except for the one week when C was sick.  The gym has been fun--lots of classes to help keep me going.  I've run 3 times in the last week, so that's back on track.  I would like to do a 10 k or a mini-triathalon in the spring, so I'm trying to push myself to ride my bike and run more.  I need to start swimming again as well.

Progress

I went back to the gym last night and used a cardio machine for about 15 minutes, and then I went to a Pilates class.  It was hard, but doable.  My calves are still sore from step class on Monday.  Today I went to a CardioKick class (basically like kickboxing).  It kicked my butt.  I wore my heart rate monitor, and in 1 hour I burned almost 500 calories.  That's ridiculous.  And b/c I am ridiculouis and have no will power, I promptly came home and ate 3 fun size bags of M&Ms (w/Colin) and a huge lunch.  So much for calorie burning.

Working Out

So for my first day of the gym, I did a weight lifting class (it was so hard on my arms) and then I did a step class.  I wore my heart rate monitor for step and burned over 400 calories.  Then I came home and ate candy.  Oops!
