As the Year Ends...

It's New Years Eve and I got my final workout for the year in this morning. I really felt the effects of the running today - my legs are complaining a little bit. I was happy that my heart rate isn't getting as high as it was at first, and the recovery time is a lot shorter now too. I started thinking about getting a personal trainer to give me some idea of how I'm doing and how to do it better. I decided to hop in the pool afterward to see just how bad I am a swimming these days. I surprised myself - I swam two lengths without much difficulty, just poor form! I start my swimming class next week, so hopefully I won't look so goofy for long. I am proud to say that in the 24 days since I started going to the Y, I have gone 15 times, logged over 14 hours of cardio training, and lifted over 13 thousand pounds. I can't say I've lost any weight - but my skinny jeans are getting tighter in the legs and looser in the waist, so i think there's been some conversion going on. Tonight I celebrate!
