What I do for fun!

I'm the one on the far right.






As you can see, I run. These are a few photos taken of me at local 5K's I ran in this summer.


I don't use running as a method of fat loss. I run because I enjoy it. I use TT for fat loss & strength. Running is just the icing on the cake for me. I run to keep active & have an overall feeling of fitness. It's become a social outlet for me as well. I run with friends & every Sat morning I run with a group of ladies. And it's fun at the races to see friends & people you know & feel like you are part of something.

It does not interfere with my TT workouts. I do my TT workouts on Mon, Wed, Fri & run Tues, Thurs & Sat. Sunday I take a complete day of rest. :)

In the summer I was running with a group with a coach & we were working on speed. So, I used my speed workouts as my intervals for my TT workouts. This month I'm working on endurance & not speed so I'm running further at a slower pace. I've been doing jumping jacks & burpees as my intervals with my TT workouts this month so that I do not overdo the running.

Running really is something that I've come to love, look forward to & has become a hobby of sorts for me.
