Training Day 7: Swami - The Personal Trainer! And 1 Mile!

Swami IM's me today asking whether I was going to the gym. And I knew I had to! Especially after all the good advice I received from My International Fitness Guru - ex-playing Professional Rugby Player coach yesterday!

Pink Treadmill! Swami showed me how to program the cardio equipment and use the weight machines, and showed me how to use the weight dumbells. 10lbs! I can swing a 10lb bag of carrots that need juicing, but the weights were just too weighty for my skinny arms! I did say that I wasn't going to cartwheel or handstand the race. To which I received a stern reply "you need to work on the whole body!" Sorry Swamiji!

I am exhausted! I ran one mile on the treadmill within 10 minutes! I know I need to get this down to 8 minutes, so will persevere. I also did some weights. For my legs and arms. Don't ask me which muscles. Its all a bit too much to take in! I am just so tired!

All in all, an hour or so in the gym! And I am exhausted! The main thing is that I am clocking up the miles. 11.1, and 12.2 to go before the race day! Whoohoo!

My daily horoscope for today stated: "Today's Full Moon in philosophical Sagittarius floods our consciousness with powerful feelings that arise from the most hidden reaches of our subconscious mind. " Aha! So that explains why I was at the gym today!
