The pain of being over weight is far worse than the pain of working out!

Well, My walking trip into town on Monday left me the next day feeling more than just a little Achy, hahaha. But Wednesday was the start of my "new me".

Wednesday morning my alarm went off at 6am (I am not an early bird of by any means!) and I awoke with ZEAL! I got up silently and put on my tights and newly bought shoes, got my cell phone with my awesome playlist that I loaded on the night before and my C25k App I downloaded from the Android store (For Free! also available for blackberry and Iphone) and off I went. My living circumstances allow for me to utilize a rugby field which is awesome, safe and secluded at 6 in the morning. I switched on my C25K App, loaded the playlist and off I went. WELL! I  know I am not so silly to assume that I would be running around nice and breezy like my runner friend I saw the other day, but c'mon, this was ridiculous! I was completely out of breath, by the end of my first session I thought I was going to pass out, but dang it, I felt amazing!! Standing there on the field I thought to myself, no wonder we only do this program three times a week, I am totally going to need tomorrow to recuperate.

Thursday was a great recuperation day, I do most of my work on a Thursday which requires me to sit in front of my PC frantically doing my Accounting based work but I don't move the whole day, I sit in my little chair as my brain gets the work out. I notice that I am a little laggy, I feel tired and very sore, my legs, my tummy, my bum... everything, it hurts.

Friday morning was hectic so I took a skip on the morning run and did the evening one instead, the whole of Friday and today iv had an abundance of insane energy! I really feel good, and according to my digital scale, 2kg's have seemed to have found another place to stay besides on my ass. Which is great!!

Friday afternoon's little run-walk was fabulous, I came back feeling like that pot of gold at the end of a rainbow. People, let me tell you, although I really felt that I wanted to do this on Wednesday, I was not sure my body was CAPABLE of doing it, but ALAS, I must say I have found the courage to say that I am 100 % sure I will be a runner as long as I continue on this program!

This is the beginning of my journey to the new me.
