Time to get off my fat ahem!

Well, a couple of years ago I did couch to 5k program and a 5k race with the aims of getting fit and fabulous to have our second child (at the time I’d had an ectopic pregnancy and had to hold off TTC as I’d had methotrexate and a laparoscopy to remove it + all the mental emotion stuff that goes with it). Well now my bub is a rather hefty 4.5 month old and I’m finally motivated to get fitter not fatter! It’s really hard as I snacked so much in pregnancy and breastfeeding makes me ravenous! Anyhow, I finally got off my fat a**e and run again. I warmed up and stretched 5 mins, run 10, walked 5 and ran 10 again. It wasn’t too bad, def need to improve fitness over the next few weeks. No shin splints, cramps etc hurrah! Went rather bright shade of beetroot – guess it’s a good thing, if I’m generating heat, I’m burning fat! Was so hot when I got home I jumped straight into the pool and did 10mini laps (it’s a small pool) and stretched muscles. Boy did my legs feel like lead when I got out. Will report back how creaky I am tomorrow morning
