It's not that you can't, it's that you won't.  Hmmmm, remind you of anyone?  I now realize that I was making excuses to not run yesterday - not only was I making excuses, I was trying to justify those excuses by getting others to agree with me.  And guess what?  It worked!  It wasn't that I CAN'T run, it was that I WOULDN'T run.  I was choosing not to.  So, from now on when there is a run scheduled, I will run until my lungs burn - no questions, no excuses, no reasoning, no choice - just do it.  :)  I am also going to make sure I get a run in each day this weekend, to make up for the days that I didn't run - on Tuesday I biked instead of attempting to run, and also yesterday I ran, but didn't want to.  No more excuses for me, ladies!

That being said, I am SO glad there is NOT a run today!  Yay me, right?  *wink, wink*  Today's workout is for time:

   15 - thruster, 20 lbs
          burpees
          thrusters, 20 lbs
          leg lifts
          thrusters, 20 lbs
          situps
          thrusters, 20 lbs
          pushups
          thrusters, 20 lbs
          burpees

Looks like a good one!

9:22 - Wow, oh wow!  I set a personal goal of 10 minutes or less and am SO, SO happy that I met/exceeded that goal!!  I have to admit, I really pushed through those last burpees to make it.  I hate burpees and who would think those things get your heart rate up so much?  At least they do for me!   I like working out in the winter because I have the vents closed in my exercise room so it doesn't get hot up there, but being on the second floor it still gets a little warm.  But the worst thing I hate about working out in winter?  Coming downstairs to a blazing fire in the fireplace!  It's very hard to cool down in front of a fire.  ;)

The hardest thing for me today was NOT the burpees, as I thought it would be, but it was actually the leg lifts!  Oh my word!!!  Those were killer!  I'm so glad there was only 15 of those suckers!!  I used 24  lbs. again on the thrusters and did really good on those until the last set.  I actually had to stop after 8 and shake out my arms!  I am impressed with how deep I can squat down while doing thrusters now.  I can definitely see an improvement on that AND in my situps.  Pushups are getting better, but I still had to pause after 12.  I think that's from using my shoulders in the thrusters and burpees, though.  I hope that's all it was!

I hope everyone has a great weekend!   I have to make up Monday's workout tomorrow, and do a run on Sunday - so no break for me.  Oh well, that's what I get for slacking!  lol
