Week 1 (Jan 29 - Feb 4) & Week 2 (Feb 5 - 11) Recap

I've never been good at recording my workouts. So now I am putting them here for you to see. At the end of every week I will be recording what I have accomplished. This way I can finally see exactly what I have been doing, my trainer can understand what is going on when it comes to my training sessions, and you can cheer me on :) Below are the last two weeks of the beginning of my training.

** I did do cross training after my short runs and hill work. But my notes have been deleted from my training center (Beyond Annoying!) Starting this week I will be recording all my ab, upper body, and toning workouts.
