Getting Back into Great Shape - Day 1

So I'm taking on the commitment of getting back into great shape.  

Fighting off a back issue and parenthood has cut down on the training time, so I'm going to have to be very focused if I'm going to hit my August 13th deadline.

My diet is primarily going to be a low glycemic, well balanced diet supported with optimal cellular nutrition from USANA Health Sciences.

My aim is get 8 hours of sleep a night and stop being such a night hawk.  Sometimes I can't turn my brain off and view sleeping as a waste of time.  This needs to improve as healthy sleep habits play a critical role in overall health.

I'll get my strength exercises from Crossfit Division as well as some cardio.

The trick is going to be having the desire and drive to run on days that Tracy is working her 7 to 7's where I can't Crossfit because of Kevin.  I confess I hate running but want to challenge myself, so I've entered myself into a 5 km run on in mid August and my goal is to finish in under 30 minutes.

I'm following a program where I'm going to run for 1 minute, walk for 90 seconds for a total of 20 minutes...

So to recap the weekly goals: 3 Crossfit Workouts, 3 Additional running days...

Wishing you health and prosperity

Greg
