Aeon is transforming

Not really fast, but moving.  1.1 miles in about 20 minutes.  The power to the treadmill kicked off in the middle and I lost track a little. I am probably underestimating the amount of time I spent.

Worked out when I got home from the office.  I am feeling a bit blue, because there are so many things that have been taking precedence in my life outside of working out.  But something in me just snapped today, and I am really ready to make a change.

I’ve been lax for while now - getting over a bout of Pneumonia and a huge workload. Prior to the pneumonia, I had been enjoying daily use of the treadmill and three days a week of Brazilian Ju Jitsu.

My goal with this has not - up until now - been to achieve a certain amount of exercise - but to get endurance and my breathing back to a capacity that will allow me to wrestle for a full five minutes without stopping.

Thats no little feat considering what I’ve come back from. Now I think its time to set more goals, and get serious about it.

i am training with the nike plus  - doing a walk to run program.  I am not sure how to pull those records in - they are visible at my nike profile.

I took some time off between workouts.  I had developed neuropathy in October, but didn’t realize that until about December 19th.  Lack of sensation in my hands and feet stopped me from working out and feeling like myself.

Things are improving and I am feeling much better.  I bought a bike this weekend, and my husband and I are starting to cycle together.  Today, we rode about 4.5 miles.  He used to cycle all the time, and I used to ride off-road.  So this is a new experience for me - I have a comfort bike with 21 speeds.  Very cool.  I can see what people love about cycling and I look forward to doing more of it…

i made it in for a swim on tuesday. the sun was just coming up, it was playing on the surface of the water. I was unable to to the full mile, but i did increase my number of laps a little more. i got a little more than a quarter mile. i did enjoy the sauna, the dry heat was nice, and cut down on the soreness.

I finally made it back to the y today for a swim. i was unable to do as much as before, but hope to build back endurance and lung capacity. as long as i am moving forward, and making progress, i feel good. i think that I will add a layer to the morning workouts, and do a full strength training session first, tomorrow, followed by a steam, followed by a swim, and then a nice session in the sauna. I couldn’t deal with the sauna or steam room today, i was still coughing too much. but i am confident that tomorrow will the be right time.

starting to add some strength training is the next logical step, I am very excited….
