Day Five

Today I was feeling kinda like a bum with Hallie until I called up my Mom. I asked her pretty pretty please with a cherry on top to go running with me. She did. We were both hesitant, but we ventured out onto the winter sidewalks around 1:00pm so that it would be warmer.
I bundled up my little girl in her snow suit. It's actually for next year, so it's way too big on her. But it kept her warm enough. And she takes after her mom&dad and so her head is on the larger side. So none of her baby hats fit her anymore. Luckily, I had a cute pink stretchy beanie that I put on her. And it fit! Well... as long as I folded the bottom up to the top. lol. And my wonderful jogging stroller has the folding cover that can flip down to cover her from the front so that the wind doesn't hit her. She loved it! She was so happy to be outside. She didn't even fall asleep. She just sat there and gazed out at the beautiful world as we ran.
We decided to be cautious and stay close to home. JUST IN CASE. So we only did a small lap. The total came out to just over 3miles. We took a very slow pace. But at least we got out and ran. That's all that really matters. Here are the stats according to MapMyRun+ ...

Average Pace: 11:54 min/mile
Average Speed: 5.04 mile/hour
Calories Burned: 288
Distance: 3.02 miles
Time: 35:59

and according to my Timex HeartRate Monitor...

Time: 36:32
In Zone: 36:32
Avg BPM: 135
Peak BPM: 193
Calories: 430

Huge difference on calorie burn. But I think it's because the cell phone app doesn't realize how out of shape we are and how hard my heart and body actually had to work to make me go 11:54 min/mi. haha.
And I felt great after the run. I felt like I could do a lot more. But I didn't. But then my husband came home 5 hours later and asked if I was going to go to the gym. I said no because I thought it closed at 5pm. stupid hours. But then I realized it was Friday and not Saturday and that it closed at 9pm instead. I was stoked! I had a little internal debate for a minute if I should go. And I decided I should! So I went. And it was wonderful. Everyone is off dating and partying so the gym was pretty bare. There were still quite a few people there, but like only one third of the usual crowd. It was great. I could actually use the machines I wanted to. And the sitting decline bench was available! It was a miracle.
I am so glad I went and worked out. I feel great now! I love double workout days! Here are my stats from the gym workout...
