I went and did my cardio this morning. 35 min of HIIT (high intensity interval training) on the elliptical machine. It went well and I felt good. Afterwards I did my shoulder rehab exercises and some ab work. But I then decided to push a little further...
... I got on the treadmill and ran (well, my version of running anyway -- more like jogging at a 5.0 speed) for 5 minutes without stopping. That is huge for me! I haven't been able to run for any more than 90 seconds at a time before this.
My plan is to keep building on this. With any luck, I'll be running in no time :)
Happy HumpDay!

p.s. - no, this is not an April Fool's post -- I ACTUALLY RAN!!!

What a good workout and that's awesome about the running! Gosh, I wish I could jog 5 minutes straight...I'm at 1min jog/2min walk right now. :-) I just am not good at jogging! Some day...I hope.
Congrats on the running! Keep it up! It's a great workout when the weather is beautiful! There's nothing like running outside, feeling the wind on your face, and watching the changing scenery!
What's NSV? (besides my initials) ;-)
Thanks guys -- An NSV is a non-scale victory. Something that I need to look for these days because the scale just won't budge!!!
Have a great weekend!
That is quite a workout...I would have been toast before the end of the regular workout...plus running! I took a 10 minute walk the other day and was pretty beat...
