Kyle and I are on a Co-Ed Softball league called "Crosswinds Blue Team". Very intimidating I know, but it's a church league, so what can ya do? Yesterday was our second game and as nervous as I was, we WON 18-2... YES, 18 to 2!! It felt pretty awesome considering that our first game we lost, 15-7. We also had a make up game tonight and unfortunately lost 17-7. Let me say though, for a team that has never played together, and a group of people who barely even get to practice together, I think we are doing pretty awesome! It's really exciting for me too because I've never really played a sport before and I am pretty excited about where it is taking me lol. Talk about a life change :). If you are ever in the Leland, NC area during the weekend, you are more than welcome to come watch us play, just be advised... I'm pretty terrible, but I'm a great encourager and I am trying to be more positive with myself. :)
Ok so with that short story, I didn't really play very much tonight at softball and needed to exercise pretty bad! I had Chick-fil-A for lunch, and a Large Coke at a movie, and then grilled chicken for dinner... Totally a bad eating day, so I went to the gym to begin my "Couch to 5k" work out. I have to admit, working out without Abby there is kind of difficult. It doesn't help that I was the only person in the entire gym also... But I went, non the less. The way that the program is set up, you walk 5 minutes as a warm up and then alternate running every minute for 20 minutes then you walk another 5 minutes as a cool down. And I must say, I'm pretty proud of myself. I really tried to focus on my breathing and my stride, because I'm obviously not a runner and I needed a little more brain focus in order to get my body acclimated to this new work out. So, I must say that I enjoyed my first workout for this program... I just hope that after 8 weeks I will love running, because even every other minute was kind of frustrating for me. :-/ but I shouldn't complain. This IS a Life Change, after all! :)
Anywho, I shall right again later to update you on my progress! Have a lovely weekend everyone!
