Let's Post our Daily Exercise

Oh and Roan- 2.6 is AWESOME. You will get there again!

Cheryl, you totally inspire me all the time with your energy!

Roan, I did the Disney Marathon this past January, my first. What a huge party! And even better that you have a friend doing it with you. I found the super-early start a bit challenging (I felt like we were starting the night before!) but it was definitely a great atmosphere for a first marathon. So great for you that you went out and walked; one step at a time, that's all that matters.

I haven't said it in a while, but this is a great and motivating group, and I thank you all for the positive energy here. I've been rather down on my myself lately, fallout from the surgery and having to be so careful and limiting myself. So thanks for providing the perspective I've been having a tough time maintaining.

Hi ladies, my thanks as well for this helpful hopeful place.

Joy, I've read about targeted heart rate but don't follow the protocol.

I started my day serenely with an hour of gentle yoga & meditation.

Didn't use a CD this time, just flowed through some of my favorite poses.

Will walk this afternoon when it warms up a little.  Now on to laundry & cooking. 

Making GF lasagne for supper tonight.  Salad of local greens, roasted beets, sliced pear, goat cheese and toasted walnuts, dressed in a light vinaigrette. mmmm 

I went to hot yoga, which was very tough after my very full day yesterday! But I did it and am happy for that. Nap and sculpt in front of the fire now!

After church did 30 mins walk/run on treadmill; 10 mins on stat bike and 30 mins upper body on weight machines.  Felt good.  Need to kick up a notch so will try and get back to some classes, water aerobics and/or zumba, sometime in the next couple of weeks.  Doesn't look like becoming a runner is in the cards for me; just don't seem to have the stamina but will keep trying.  Have another 5K (local) in 2 weeks.

Think I will also start back with loseit.com and maybe that will put my eating habits back in check.

I ditto those who said thank you all for keeping us on track.  Great motivator. 

My whole body is sore from dancing but so worth it. I officially have lost the late night energy, however. That will be my first and last night out in a LONG time. I am a wreck today. BFF, go dancing for me when you feel up to it!

Did three different 30 minute exercise 'spurts' today. Rock Solid Buns in the morning, Cardio Dance Party in the afternoon (both FIRM DVDs), and took a walk tonight, (which was not that fun as the wind was gusting to 55 mph!).

Ditto, ditto, ditto, ditto my appreciation for all of you! I've said it before, you all are THE positive SE of my BC experience. Hugs and cookies all around!

NatsFan  Jealous of your DC tour on a Segway - how fun!!  Are the cherry blossoms still blooming?

Triple ditto the positive energy and motivation here - (( cyber hugs )) to all of you

Sunny but cool day here - where did the warm temps go?  It's 48 degrees - and I foolishly put all of my jackets away last week, have to go dig one out again! 

Off for a fitness hike with my dog, then some pilates.  Today I will figure out heart rates and see what I should be doing about cardio.  Thinking about starting an exercise log.

Dear Heidihill, is a good resting heart rate 80 and below, and how high should it be if you are doing the elyptical, thanks!!!!!

hi ladies, I did a good thing for me today and took a personal day.  Nothing was urgent at work, it's a beautiful spring day and I don't take those for granted anymore.  Finished a book, napped, and took a lovely long walk.  The city was mowing the grass in my favorite little park, what a nice smell. 

pat01, it's better to do 15 mins than none so you did OK.  And if you're going to eat beignets, enjoy them, and have one for me!

Yoga class tonight.  Better go pay some attention to my ugly chemo-toes.  

Joy, I use the training log at runningahead.com, very good, lots of functionality, and you can even keep track of the miles on your different pairs of running shoes. Also, you can make up a training plan for a certain goal date (like a race, but it doesn't have to be), plan out the workouts you're going to do on specific days, and when you record them, it literally crosses them out for you, saying you've done your scheduled workout. Sort of like how Ruth described that she does in her notebook with a paper and pencil, I suppose. Anyway, I highly recommend it.

Good job on the exercise, everyone!  

We took a long bike ride in the morning, and then I took a nice walk with a neighbor and friend in our building. Have a great evening, everyone!!!!!

Hi Ladies-

Just checking in, not keeping up with all of you wonderful girls as I hoped I would.  I'm back up in Tahoe with my pooch (my dog, not my stomach, but that's here as well...)

I had a big hike with the dog here today 5 miles, and I try to keep the miles under 15 mins.  Good workout, especially because of altitude and hills.  Dog is tired, so I know I did something right...takes a big amount of work to tire him our!

Off to go see what I can rustle up for chow.

XO
Kim

light bouncing 45 minutes, arms, 1/2 callanetics, 15 minute inside walk, it's Monday ladies.

Hello my inspirations......90 minutes Anusura yoga tonight. Theme of the class was change and challenge and acceptance......not only surving change, but thriving after it. Very apt theme. We worked incredibly hard on the hamstrings, inner and out thighs and balancing poses. I am already sore. Have a 5 mile walk planned for tomorrow. Have a great evening.
