The Runner returns!

Today saw me doing something I've not done in a very long time... I went for a run.

Growing up, people used to call me "the Runner". Because that's how I got from A to B, I ran everywhere (This may contribute to my lean build, the rest of my family are...... "Big Boned").

So I re-downloaded an old app I used to use to track my walks/runs (RunKeeper), and off I went.
I decided to break myself back in by having a quick jog to the shop. I live pretty close, so decided to take the long way (I love this feature of Runkeeper, setting a route beforehand gives you a target too).
Couldn't of planned it better, the route I took was exactly 1km. which took me just over 5 minutes to complete.
For a quick reintroduction to running it was not a bad little run. And it has given me a push to do more.
If it wasn't for the fact I felt ruined afterwards, I think I could get into this daily... For now I'll try and run 2 times a week.

Today's timetable:

9:30 - Yogurt and Granola, 2x Eggs, 2x rashers bacon, 4x slices of toast.

11:00 - 1km run

11:30 - 20 Crunches, 20 Bicycle kicks, 20 reverse crunches

12:15 - 70mg/125ml Protein Shake

14:00 - 2x large breaded chicken breasts, salad.

18:00 - New Potatoes, 2x Pork Loin steaks.

22:30 - 30x Raised push-ups
