It was a successful day in my HealthyWager quest. I am down to 159.8 lbs for a total weight loss of 5.6 lbs. If I maintain that weight through the weekend; then, I will also have met my goal for this week which was to weigh 160 lbs or less next Monday. I stepped the run up 2.5 miles from my previous longest run. Today I ran 54 minutes, for a total of 6.5 miles.
Today’s Exercise:
- The same Anderson Ab workout that I’ve been doing. You can check out the post from Day 2 if you aren’t familiar with it.
- 6.5 mile run
- QTY 50 ea. Boxing Crunches (see Day 3 for a description)
