4.07 mile run today at an 8:54 pace! I am feeling really good about my last two runs. It seems as though the speed work is starting to pay off.

I hope you don't mind if I jump in here!

Today was day 5 of Insanity for Dh and I. It was cardio recovery, basically a lot of stretching.

I like the program so far, but Im having trouble doing all of the exercises. When I was in my early teens I broke my left wrist right at the growth plate, and it never healed properly. So I cant do things like push ups or put any weight on my left wrist, so I can't do everything in the video. I make it up by doing more reps of the other exercises for that day, but it just sucks. I want to get the best work out possible, and I dont think I am. DH bought me a wrist wrap and I used that for the first time today, and it was helpful, but I still couldnt bear down on it, it was just too painful. Hopefully it will get stronger as time goes on? I dont know.

I also ate like crap today. I have to get the junk food eating under control.

ETA - DH also comprised a list of some ab workouts for me. Abs are killing me!

Welcome!! I can't wait to try Insanity! Looks like it's...well...insane!!

JW 30 minute fast start DVD. Was itching to burn off some anger with some hard cardio this afternoon but I'll take it to the bike in the morning. I can't wait till this effing boot is off. I'm SO over the bike workouts! The elliptical is looking might appealing right now!
