I'ts Monday again! :)

I've made it through 12 Mondays since I started this little road trip in January!  I can't believe it has been that long. My favorite thing is the workouts! It's hard to believe that I can honestly say that and mean it!  I have really learned to love my time at the gym! The last couple of workouts got me a bit worried, because I was finishing all my weights and my warm ups in about 50 min instead of well over an hour.  I realized this morning though, that it's because I am able to whip through my reps so much faster than I could before. Because my work out was shorter, I decided to do a bit of cardio on the treadmill before I left. So I ran and walked. 1 min running and 3 minutes walking, on and off 4 times. I walked at a 4 and ran at a 7.  
Last week I watched one of the episodes on Biggest loser. Dulvet had one of the gals run at a 10 for one minute.  That was an "aha" moment for me.  I used to run track, I hated long distance, but I loved sprinting, and if it weren't for the weight, I think I really could have done amazing. As I watched that girl run at a 10 my stomach started spinning and I got so excited thinking about trying it myself that I could hardly stand it!
The next morning I tried it....I wasn't able to do a 10, but I did an 8 for 30 seconds. That was so fun! It gave me courage to keep going. My knees are hurting less and less too, so that is a goal I think I may be able to reach!  
Oh, and I cleaned out my closet this weekend.  Got rid of over half of my clothes, because they don't fit me anymore!!!  They are too big!:)
