Chi Running and Half Marathon Day 3

Yesterday, I did another interval Chi run of 4 min Chi running/2 minutes Chi walking for 30 minutes. My plan was to do 40 minutes but I think I pushed myself on the running end. I think I have convinced myself that since I am walking in between I can run as fast as I can. I end up running out of fuel before my run is complete. I was so hungry later in the day. The hunger felt like that after a really long run. I stayed the course though and ate healthy, foods.

Today was a cross training day for me. I bought a Gazelle by Tony Little a few months back when I injured my knee. I am using that on my cross training days. I'm sure many of you are laughing right now, but I can honestly say that this affordable, foldable machine is wonderful. You get a great, low-impact total body workout and it is so much fun to use. I feel like I am flying when I use it. For those of you who want to tighten your butt, this is a wonderful machine! I highly recommend it.

I am staying on target for the most part with my diet, although I did allow myself to have a Mike's Hard Lemonade with my husband while watching the Penguins game. The third period just started and the Penguins are ahead by one goal. Go Penguinios! I am going to close now so I can watch the rest of the game.

Keep running and stay fit and healthy:)
