One month down....

I can't believe we are onto February already.  2011 is already flying!   Slow down, Time!  
I started week 4 of Insanity today.  I'm a little nervous because after next week, the longer, more intense workouts begin.  I've heard the first month really prepares you for it.  I hope to see big changes, especially in my day60 photo.  My new profile pic is my day20 photo.  I can already see changes in my shoulders and back.  I hope the abs join in too, but I know that will depend on eating well.  I want muscles!  Not too much, but definitely improved tone.

Fitness fury for 2011!

The moment the new year rang in, I was ready to really make some changes this year.  I started 2011 with the completion of triple marathons (12/31, 1/02 and 1/02).  It was intense.  It pushed my limits.  I finished without injury and for that (in my mind), makes me a winner.

After a week of gentle recovery, I dove head-first into the Insanity program by Beachbody (I am a coach and can tell you more about that later).  It is a humbling program.  What I love about the program is the 2 week fit tests to track progress.  I wasn't sure if I was improving.  My 2nd fit test from yesterday proves it.  Remarkable improvements!  I can tell my legs are getting more powerful.  Hopefully, this will lead to faster running.

Just the tip of the iceberg of what I have in store for this year.  I had to start from somewhere, being my first blog and all ;)
