First 'real' day at the gym.

My first real day the gym was on Monday, (sorry not stayed ontop of the blog).

I through the book out the window for the day, kind of. Decided to stick with the 10 min crosstrainer warm up, but then hit the treadmill for a go at week 2 of the couch to 5k NHS plan. Followed by a 10 cool down on a bike.

Now if you've not heard of it, you should check it out, the couch to 5k program is great. It's what got me running before my ankle injury. Didn't have the program on me so it was a mix up of 5 minutes walking, 1 min running then walking, alternating the two. Then turned it up to 90 seconds running, 1 minute walking. Then 5 minutes walking at the end, total 30 minutes.

All this was topped off with the compulsory chill in the solarium and hydropool.

All in all, Monday I have to say felt very positive and good after it all.
