Week
Three of my 10 week fitness challenge passed quickly. Since developing a plan to walk the track at the Y in between doing my PT moves has made working out again fun. I did burn less calories on
Wednesday than on Monday but I think this is just due to it being
after my 10 hour shift and feeling a little tired.

Sunday:
No Activity
I took
a rest day today.
Monday:
3 miles
I
completed three miles at the YMCA walking the track 3 laps for 12
times in between my PT core strengthening moves. It took one hour
and I earned 5 APs. I was really able to get my heart rate up during
my walking.
Tuesday:
No Activity
This is
a hard day to get activity in as it is my first day back at work and
I am usually tired. I also have been grocery shopping and meal
prepping on Tuesdays after work. I cut my had this day during my
veggie chop prep. Oy!
Wednesday:
3 miles
Another
day at the Y on the track. It is quite busy in the evenings and I
had to compete for space on the track and the exercise area with some
sort of teen group. It was fairly annoying and I think also partly
why I earned one less AP than Monday. 4 APs earned.
Thursday:
2.4 miles
I
walked on the treadmill at home watching TV. I had plans to take
today off of activity but my hair appointment was postponed until next
week. ::womp:: ::womp:: I knew at some point this week I would still
need to get in some miles and since I was just going to watch TV I
thought I should walk. 3 APs earned.
Friday:
No Activity
I had
plans to meet a friend for coffee after work and so today was a
planned rest day. I also had a lot of TV to watch (do you sense a
theme here?) but I wanted to just veg on the couch since I knew I
would be going to the Y on Saturday.
Saturday:
3 miles
At the
Y again and without the added distractions and working out early in
my day I again earned 5 APs.
Total
for Week Three: 11.4 miles
Challenge
Total: 41.2 miles of 120 miles walked
I
didn't quite meet my 12 miles for this week so looking back I wish I
had walked a few extra laps on the track on Saturday! However, due to counting
the walking miles in Vegas I am head of schedule. I will continue my
goal of 12, or more, miles per week to see how many miles I can rack
up over the next seven weeks.
