It's Sunday!

I like Sunday mornings because I have time to sleep in a little (7am) and still go to the gym for a good workout.  Lenny didn't have to work until 9 this morning, so I was able to workout from 7:30-8:30.  I went to Planet Fitness, and they finally opened the new gym!  It was so much nicer in there than the old one!  It is about a mile further away, but I can't really complain since it is only 2 miles away now.  Lol  It is so much bigger inside!  The locker room is like 3 times the size of the old one, with nice showers and private dressing rooms.  There are a lot of lockers (unlike the old one!) and places to get ready.  There are lay down tanning beds in this one.  That should be a little more relaxing, though I do feel a bit claustrophobic in them.  And a nice relaxing room with massage chairs.  You aren't out in the open if you want to relax!  I have never tried them before, but I think I will now.

I wasn't able to weigh in like I had planned.  They didn't have the scale there.  I am hoping they put a new one in or something.  Whatever.  Maybe it's a blessing, since I went over in my calories for the past 2 days.  I will have to wait and try and weigh in next week.

I ran 1 mile without stopping in 12:18!  And a lot of it was at an incline!  I am quite proud of myself.  That is the farthest I have ever run, plus being at an incline!  They have new treadmills at the gym and I like them a lot.  I sure pushed myself today.  I ended up doing 38 minutes on the treadmill and then when I got home I did some circuit training as Natalie cheered me on.  I am even thinking about going back to the gym later if someone will babysit Natalie!  I want to burn lots of calories today so that I don't go over again.  We are having a steak dinner at my parents house and it is always when we are there that I seem to go over.  Or I may take N for a walk.  She would like that.  First I need to get some caffeine in me!
