Exerting Effort

As I sat on the couch wanting to do something I knew I should walk or run and told Ryan that if I didn't have to change or exert effort I would exercise. A few minutes later I got myself off the couch and then got onto the treadmill. 

I walked a programmed "Easy" course for .5 where it increased from 2 to 4 to 6 to 8 to 10% incline. I did that in 98cals 7:10. Then I ran. I ran at 6.5mph for a solid 2.25 miles, running for 21:00 non-stop - and I surprised myself by tricking myself to keep going all that distance rather than stopping after 1. I then walked .25 to  complete 2.5 in 24:19 391cals. Total Workout: 3.0 miles in 31:29 489cals.

Then I lifted 2 sets of the 20lb kettlebell - doing 10 sumo deadlifts, 10 thrusters, 10 kettlebell throws. Then I did 10 woodblock chops with 10lbs for 2 sets.

New Miles: 3.0
Total Miles: 558.25
Miles Remaining: 941.75
Weight: 139.4
