Second week a bust!

Maximum miles: 1.5
Weight loss: 2 pounds (probably because I have been knocked out on migraine meds and not awake enough to eat)

Well, the second week was a bust, mainly because of my migraine. I did get to workout on Monday as scheduled. Wednesday I was in full-blown migraine, knocked-out on meds mode. And today (Friday), I was just waking up from the dead. Three things I did learn this week:

1) The right shoes make all the difference. I got a pair of actual running shoes, Aasics. They don't feel like I'm running in bricks like the New Balance walking shoes I was wearing.

2) I am not running a race. I am just trying to get myself healthy again. So, it's ok if I just jog for right now. I was trying to run last week and I was starting to see stars. My heart rate was through the roof. I'm surprised I didn't pass out!

3) Stick to my schedule. I have determined that around 11 to 11:30 am is going to be best with the baby's nap schedule and our other schedules right now. I just need to stick with that. This morning, little man wanted to go play with a friend. I thought, "Ok, we can go to the gym after naps this afternoon." Well, I failed to realize that there is no nursery on Friday afternoons. That's ok. I was still trying to recover from this darn three-day migraine anyway.

There's always next week!
