Bonus Workout and Some Shopping Pics!

I ended up not having to work last night, so I decided to get my butt over to the gym and do a bonus cardio workout. Since I got my handy dandy HRM, I wanted to also play with that and see how close the treadmill was estimating my burned calories. I did an hour on the treadmill, a fast walk at a pretty decent incline, and burned 709 calories!!! How bad ass is that! I ran into my trainer too, who was working a floor shift, and he kept me company for a while, which was nice. Thursday is not on my list of planned gym days, so I am excited...I think I'm starting to get a little addicted :)

Speaking of the HRM, I ordered that, a new pair of sneakers and a new water bottle together. All pink. I'm the most unlikely girly girl ever, but here are my new treasures..



Last night when I got home I had another surprise waiting for me - my wonderful black boots had gone on sale so I decided to get the other color (hey, they were only $70!) They were waiting outside my door. Here they are (a brownish greenish color).



Today was another personal training session. We're playing around with different exercises, and spent most of the session working on my legs and butt. When we were finished, he gave me a great stretch, which was apparently a workout for him because I'm really flexible :) I'm gonna be very sore tomorrow if tonight is any indication.

Tomorrow is a planned day off but I might do a beginner's yoga class. We'll see. Tonight I'm sitting on the couch wishing my bathroom was closer so I didn't have to walk ALLL THE WAY down the hall :)

Hope everyone has a great weekend!
