I haven't been up to all that much here in the frozen tundra. It's SO COLD! Mornings have been in the negative numbers. Without the wind chill. Ugh! This was when I went out to tuck the ponies in for the night yesterday:
Gross is an understatement. Come on Spring, where are you?! The good thing about being stuck inside is that I'm getting all caught up with things in the house. Laundry is under control. Closets have been purged. And I finally put the treadmill together!
They say it's a two person job, but I got it done by myself. The hardest part was getting the base out of the box. I'm really happy with it! I haven't yet found where it will tell me my pace per mile, but I'm sure it must somewhere. I should probably read the manual...
Since this thing is finally up and running, so am I! (Pun fully intended) FINALLY! My first run was just a 2 miler. A slow two miler. With a little walk break in the middle. I'm so out of shape. My second run was better. I ran slow still, but did two full miles, walked for 2 and a half minutes, and then ran one more mile. So 3 total running miles. Baby steps friends!

The snow is out of control this month! Stay safe and warm out there!
DeleteI AM SO OVER THIS SNOW!!! When will it get warmer?! But, it looks like you are making the most of it, which is great! I've actually always wanted a treadmill at home, but since I live in an apartment that's just not possible haha. It's even too cold for me to go out and go to the gym which is so annoying!! Love the jewelry you made and the animals are the cutest! I'm such a dog person so I was dying over these pictures!!

ME TOO! Ugh! Snowed again this morning! Sun is out now though, thank goodness.
DeleteThank you, I love my four legged kids :) They're hilarious. I really should video their antics more often.
all that snow is CRAZY!!! but Kudos to you for getting a treadmill, installing it and running again! Way to go superwoman :)
ReplyDeleteHaha! I don't know about superwoman... but I gotta do something. I'm outgrowing my pants ;)
DeleteI hope this weather breaks soon. I've had about all I can take!
Working out at home is so great! I love having everything right there, so much less likely to flake out of it.
