Adding to my list of X's

No, I am not having any relationship issues, this week is my five year anniversary and I am even happier now than the day I got married. I get to put another X on my Body-for-Life calendar. As I have said before Tuesdays I go to my morning men's bible study so I don't get to workout or run on those days so I get to do it during lunch. Today I was going to shoot for going 30 minutes at 7 MPH but then it turns out I have to make a client visit later today and I don't want to get all nasty before heading that way since I may not have had a chance to shower before leaving. I decided to go thirty minutes total today, I started by walking at 4 MPH for 5 minutes, then I ran for 20 minutes at 6.5 MPH, and finished with 5 more minutes at 4 MPH to cool down. Thursday I will be running in the morning at work so I can get as sweaty and nasty as I want so I will be doing the 30 minute run at 7 MPH. Today while I was on the treadmill I had the great idea to use my phone to stream Netflix while running to pass the time but I was not able to hear it over the running on on Thursday I will do the same but I will use my iPad with head phones. I figure that will make the run go by a little quicker. When I woke up this morning I was not all that sore, I expected to be quite sore due to the workout from yesterday, but as the day goes on my chest biceps and triceps are becoming a little more sore as the day goes on. Like I have said before it is just the muscles rebuilding and making me stronger so I am ok with it. Tomorrow is a lower body workout and I am going to be doing lunges and squats rather than use the machine. One of the guys that I work with will be in the fitness room tomorrow as well and he is doing pull down and back exercises and will need the machine to do that so I am not going to get in his way since I can do mine workout with just some dumb bells and squats. I am only going to need the machine when I do my  abs and even then I think I can come up with a way to do crunches with dumb bells if I need to. I think I will be adding a little bit of weight to my workout tomorrow but not so much that I shouldn't be able to finish my 7 MPH run. Keep an eye out tomorrow for the results.
