Warning: Aerobic capacity increasing!!!
Well, after a week of 3 group fitness classes and one day of heavy weights, I went for another run today. This was my mile circuit again. Completed in a time of 9:23:38. It was quicker, which is awesome, but the second doubly awesome thing is that at the end, my son joined me and I ended up running a little further than my mile. I told him to watch for me running up the block, which he did, and he joined me at the front of the house and we ran around our block again (I normally start my run with a run around the block then go around other the other parts of the neighborhood). It was an extra 300m or so, and I don’t even feel super winded after the workout. And I got to include one of my kids in my workout plans - something he’s been asking for. Freakin’ AWESOME!!!

Awesome is right. That’s way cool. I’ve been thinking that I hope my daughters will ask to go to the gym with me one day, with the hope of instilling a lifelong passion for fitness in them. About 2-3 wks ago they told me they want to go with me when they’re older. Cool!
Congrats on the improving cardio.
