Day 3 - Feeling Good!

Salmon, Tomato & Rocket on Toast
Perfect way to start the day!
Had a great day so far today and am feeling on top of the world! Got up early and went for a 30min run with my new HRM. It was great to see my heart rate and it really made me push myself. Ended the run with 10mins of Outdoor Intervals (30s on 30s off) - phew that was hard! Then did the final blast - 30 basketball jumps + 30 step ups on each leg. It was hard but I felt good the whole way. Strong and fit! Can definitely do better and go faster, but still felt amazing! I'm sure that it definitely helps that it is a beautiful sunny day after 2 misery guts days of rain!

We had Salmon & Tomatoes on toast this morning for breakfast sitting outside on our balcony. So nice! But made us a little late for work - oops!

Had yummy pizza again last night for dinner. This time smoked chicken with olives, ricotta and rocket. So tasty! Made on pita bread bases so super easy and really healthy too. We wanted to go to the driving range last night but I had too much work to do. Felt good getting it done though.

This is how I am feeling today :) Whenever I hear or think of this
song it reminds me of our wedding as my little sister sang it. Love it!

  1. I like your stats! What kind of HRM did you buy? Looking at your before and after pic from last round you made great progrees - you must be really tall though!

  2. Hi Andrea,
    It's a Polar RCX3, and I also got the Polar GPS that goes with it so I could get pace etc on my runs. Not cheap, but I like seeing all the stats. It's only new so still trying to decide if I really like it.
    And yes I am tall - about 5'10" :)
