Baby Steps

After failing to exercise yesterday I made the early start to get to the gym. This was made all the harder as I had to get off the new mattress that we received yesterday and meant I had a very good nights sleep.

So, all refreshed and raring to go I went up the stairs to the gym with enthusiasm and vigor, OK more like i dragged myself up wondering why. After some stretching I was back on my old friend the running machine who was kinder to me today, I managed a solid 1km, at a speed of 12km/h and then tiredness hit (or boredom as iPod had run out of battery) and i stumbled around the gym a bit. I did notice a big improvement in my recovery time and went onto the X-Trainer. Again just a short session but 3 levels higher than normal on level 11.

Then off to shower and work, where i must admit all the aches and pains i had after Saturday are not here today, maybe I will try a much longer session on Thursday now the muscles are getting used to the idea of being used again.
