We have decided to institute a 20 min workout requirement everyday at work. I think that this is a great idea especially since my job involves sitting in front of a computer all day. Then i go home, hang out with the kids and once they go to bed sit in front of the computer for my schoolwork.
For my 20 minute workout today, I decided to go for my run. I work pretty close to Val Vista lakes and it is a nice area to run around.
I actually had a really big breakthrough today. During my first 5 minute run I had started pushing the pace. After a few minutes, it started to feel as if I had Mike Tyson in my chest. He was trying to escape and bite off Evander Holyfield's other ear. However, I pushed through the chest pain. I managed to get to my first walking break. I was exhausted, but it felt good. Then I had to do my next run. Surprisingly, my chest felt good and I didn't have that pain again.
However, I did get a sharp pain in my left foot arch.
Eventually, the sharp pain went away, but it didn't feel good.
