squats anyone?

This post is for yesterday, Sunday 16th October. This morning I slept in and then went to work in the city. It was a very quiet today, I think everyone was at the beach because the weather was amazing! Food was much better today, starting to find it easier to find things to eat that aren't processed etc.

Workout at work due to the lack of customers:

100 squats for time.
Time: 2.22 minutes

Needless to say, I was sore from the freaking tabata crap from the night before so 100 squats didn't come out easy. But they did nonetheless.

I headed down to the lake near my house to do the first workout on Eva T's list. Perfect time of the night, still light but a bit cooler than the 34 degree day it had been.




Workout:
Lap of the lake
50 squats
3 rounds

Time: 17.54 minutes

The workout said for the run to be 1/2 a mile which is 800 metres but I had no idea how far it is around the lake. Dad reckons it's about 500m, but it felt like further. So who knows, I just know I ran around it 3 times.

Food intake
Breakfast: 2 poached eggs
Lunch: a garden salad (never eaten so much lettuce at one time, I felt like a rabbit)
Punnet of strawberries
A whole bunch of almonds

Bowl of fruit and icecream

Lunch: chicken and salad (tomatoes, cucumber, lettuce, capsicum. avocado)
Be Natural Coconut and Chia Bar

  2. shins are good, haven't really been hurting. I'm sort of playing it be ear-if they start hurting I'll back off the running etc. But I umpired for 5 hours tonight, including playing a game of netball and they didn't really hurt so that's a good sign!
