Progress Fridays: My Experience with Getting Back Into the World of Running

I must say that this has been a pretty good week. Running has become part of my morning routine because it actually helps me kickstart my day. Here is what I have been able to accomplish so far this week.

** I decided not to run today, so I have opted to do a light full-body workout. I plan to work on abs as well. I know my body will be hurting tomorrow!

** As I continue to run, this is my progress from this week. Hopefully I will keep sticking with it.


Tune in next Friday to catch up on my progress with running and ways to inspire yourself to stick with it on Progress Fridays!

Also, check in tomorrow to see my third installment of Supplement Saturdays!
