Cardio day!

Today I decided to push myself a bit more in my cardio. I planned to jog the 2 miles. I used the walk to the running path as my warm up. It's only .05 miles but I walked briskly.

I used the therapy pool since it gave me a better workout than the lap pool. My goal was to get more sets in in the 30 minutes. I was able to get in 12 3/4 sets in! I really used my arms to propel me in the water. I finished the last 1/4 of my set because my OCD won't let me not do it.

There is a charity 5K in April and I am hoping to do it.
