Day 3 Level 1

Well I woke up this morning and watched the weather and it was already Hot here at 7am.  I knew if I was going to get my running in outdoors I needed to get to it.  So by 7:20 I was outside in front of my house running for 30 minutes.  It was hot.  My road is partly shady so I decided to continue on and walk another 30 minutes to cool down.  After coming inside I felt pretty good so I popped in my DVD and started Day 3 Level 1 of the 30DS.  The pushups still kill me.  I started out trying the regular pushups but after 6 I had to switch to the modified pushups.  I'm always glad when the first 6 minute circuit is over. The rest seem fairly easy compaired to this one.  I'm glad my exercise is complete for the day.

I use several online programs to log my exercise and eating.  If you've never heard of or used myfitnesspal.com you should try it out.  It is a good tool for tracking what you eat and exercise.  It is sort of like facebook for health and fitness.  I joined a new group on Saturday and we are all doing the 30 Day Shred together and posting our results.  The support will help you stick with the program.  Thanks Group!

Another tool that I use on my smartphone is mapmyrun.com  You can use the program to record your distance, time, calories and much more.  It maps where you run too.  I also use the computer version.  You can join challanges and they say earn prizes but I've never gotten any..ha. 

Calories I've burned today:
30 Day Shred - 20 minutes = 165 Calories
30 minutes of walking = 117 Calories
30 minutes of running = 266 Calories
30 minute walking on treadmill = 117
