Working Out and Weighing In Link Up

Today I am linking up for the first time from a real computer in 10 days!  Wow, this seems much easier this way.  

First, to start with the weigh in.  I am happy and somewhat reluctant to say I only gained about 2-3 pounds on vacation (I don't know the exact amount because I didn't weigh the morning before I left).   I am back to where I was when I go back from my first trip this summer, but I honestly expected it to be more because the trip was longer.  I'll take it as a win.  

Now, for the workout.  I am still doing interval training (actually today will be my first day back at it). 

 Here it is if you are interested.

  

Also, before I left I had started incorporating a Skinny Meg workout.  I broke the workout into two days because I am also trying to incorporate distance in my running.

If you have questions about any of the moves press the link provided and hop on over to her original post, as she provides video, etc. explaining each move.  

I think all of it is adding up and working because I was able to start getting into goals jeans.

Now, for the newer stuff.  I am really considering training for a 10k or half-marathon.  

I am seriously considering doing the Fort 4 Fitness. 

 There are several reason I would love to do this one. 

1. I know many bloggers who are doing it and it would be great to meet some faces behind the blog.

2. It would hold me accountable.

3. It would give me something to train for.

With that being said, what apps has anyone used to train for distance running? 

 There are so many out there, some costing upwards of $10.00, which I don't care to pay if I know it is a good program.
