I’m back for real! For the last two weeks I walked and/or worked in the yard–pretty low-impact stuff, though the walking felt good. Last night I met a girl who expressed interest in doing the upcoming triathlon as a relay team, but she needs a swimmer and a runner. I told her I’d be interested [...]

I wrote about three weeks ago that my food log would be on hold until August 15… I didn’t quite make it by August 15! There are a couple of reasons for this. For one, I walked while I was visiting my sister, but when I came back home and tried to run, it was [...]

Taking today as a rest day because I’m going out of town tomorrow and have laundry and housecleaning to do before I go, as well as packing and half a day of massage appointments. Hoping to squeeze in a short workout tomorrow morning before I leave. var gaJsHost = ((“https:” == document.location.protocol) ? “https://ssl.” : [...]

~50 minutes, run/walk in my neighborhood. 5 minute warmup, walking run 8 minutes/walk 2 minutes 4 x–except the last run was only 7 minutes ’cause I got to my usual cooldown spot almost

To mix things up a little, I used my exercise time this morning to finish mowing the lawn. Tim mowed most of it last night, so I only had about 35 minutes left to do this morning. Then I spent about another 30 minutes sweeping the deck, patio, sidewalk and driveway–which actually gets my heart [...]

Run/walk 46 min in my neighborhood. Back on the hills! walk to warm up, 5 min run 3 min, walk 3 min 6x, except the last walk was 4 min and the last run was 5 min because I was almost home and it was almost all downhill walk to cool down, about 5 min [...]

46-minute run/walk with Tim in the park near his parents’ house. Tim usually does intermittent training (IT), so I suggested that since we pushed pretty hard yesterday we do IT today. When we used to do IT together based on his heart rate zone, it was pretty easy for me. It seems the tables have [...]

55 minute run/walk with my husband in the park and neighborhood near his parents’ house. 5 minute warm up run 10 min, walk 2 min, run 10 min, walk

I’m skipping exercise today…because I have a ton to do! The usual Friday housecleaning, about 5 loads of laundry, pack to go out of town, a lunch date with a friend, have to go with another friend in his truck to pick up some furniture I bought that didn’t fit in my car, and there [...]

Alright, got my butt in gear this morning and did my exercise first thing. Feels so good! It’s raining again today–or threatening to–so I didn’t want to go outside. Found another workout from OnDemand, SlimDownCardioBurn with Kendell Hogan. It was pretty good; shorter than I wanted, not as intense as I hoped, and the steps [...]
