Caught up on my rest, not quite 8 hours but close enough. I felt so good that I woke up before my alarm went off! Really needed the rest, and after today I plan to be as disciplined in my sleep efforts as the rest of my nutrition/ workout plan!
Day 3 17 Jan 07
Whole body was sore today. I though it was just my upper body, but I realized how wrong I was as soon as I started my cardio session!
After my first interval, I knew I was going to have to fight thru this first cardio session! The 90sec (high intensity)/ 180 (recovery) x4 didn't look like a whole lot written in my log book (yes, I log everything and you should too), but almost immediately after my first interval I changed my mind (which didn't help, because it's all in the mind and how you think of things). Think it's hard, then it is; think it's easy, then it becomes easier. Since, I couldn't think of it as easy, I stopped thinking about it, turned up the volume on my iPOD, and got it done!
When the 4th interval came around I gave it all I had and increased the speed! I had to cool down a lot longer after that last interval (felt like I was going to puke if I slowed down too fast), so I added an extra 5 minutes more to my cardio (then I had originally planned) to cool down properly.
Excited about my next cardio session; but dreading it as well. It will include 15 30sec (sprint)/30sec (recovery) intervals!
