I wanted to test my ankle out. I wore a brace for support and because there was still a sore spot. I did 1mile on the treadmill at an easy pace. My ankle felt pretty good. I would have run more but I didn’t want to do too much at once. It felt great to run again.

I realized just how much of a runner I had become. Not running was soooo hard for me. I was envious when I saw people running. I couldn’t wait to run again. I missed it every day. It felt very weird to not have running as an option for my cardio. It makes me laugh that when I could run, there were days I wouldn’t be in the mood and now that I can’t, all I want to do is run. Funny how it works out like that ;-)

I hit the weight room for a lighter leg day. I meant to have a light leg day, but it turned out to be a little more intense. My ankle did fine. The lunges were a bit uncomfortable but it think I should have lowered the weight for those. Followed the weights with 30min speed intervals in the stairmaster. Going up steps doesn’t bother my ankle, but going down does.

I meant to do BikiniBooty for some fine toning, but Friday turned out to be hectic. Boys had games at the same time. Luckily, I was able to have Gio go with his friend so Ben and I could watch Seppe’s game. We left early to make it to Gio’s game which was in Pacifica. We were out late so dinner was late. We had an early morning on Saturday, so the boys went right to bed after dinner.

I was sooooo tired by the time I put the boys to sleep, that I fell asleep on the couch before 10p – which rarely happens. Ben woke me up to go to bed but I did get a plank done before calling it a night. I’ll have to make up the toning workouts over the weekend.
