Let's Post our Daily Exercise

Yesterday taken by return trip to eye doctor then 3 hour hair appointment which is also over an hour drive one way so no exercise.  I also have bad habit of eating badly in car on long drives so that didn't help.

Today was nice out so walked a mile to the gym, did upper and lower body weights then walked back home.  So that was a nice 2 hours but my legs are not happy. 

No, still did not do taxes.  Oh well, have few more weeks.  Exercise is much more important!

Yesterday:  Late night workout (9:30pm) 1 hour - 7 miles

Today:  75 minutes - 10 miles

Planning a hike for tomorrow!

Have a nice Sunday everyone!

TNBC and Exercise

BTW, this was ski jumper Lindsay Van's answer to that idiot Kaspar's remarks:

"It just makes me nauseous. Like, I kind
of want to vomit. Like, really? Like, I'm sorry, but my baby-making
organs are on the inside. Men have an organ on the outside. So if it's
not safe for me jumping down, then my uterus is going to fall out, what
about the organ on the outside of the body?"

You go girl! 

Dulci--very interesting history re: roads being built to accommodate bikes; so much for those who think that bicycles don't belong on roads, eh?   That's a terrific picture of you from an earlier incarnation; so how was the home front during World War I?  

Today:  temperature above 40F?  Check.  No precipitation?  Check.  I got out on a real bicycle on real pavement breathing real air, so maybe there's hope that spring might really, actually happen.

Hi Bluetail!

We had a bad ice storm Thursday night. Big limbs down. Trees down (no trees, just huge limbs in our yard). Our electricity was off for 40 hours. It was freezing!

Luckily the ice melted quickly. Saturday and Sunday were in the 60s. Today the temperature was 72 degrees. I "picked up sticks" in the yard and power walked/jogged at the park. Had to dodge a couple of downed trees at the park.

 Got up and vacuumed, dusted etc., went to yoga, which was particularly blah because the instructor was sick so they just put in a DVD ('real' yoga people also said it was boring, so it just wasn't me), chipped ice & picked up twigs from the backyard, and went to Zumba. It was nice enough for the cats to go out for awhile, so I got some extra exercise chasing cats with muddy feet around the house & then scrubbing their paw prints off the floor!

Beautiful here today, even had my sunroof open at lunch. (Course I was having a hot flash but felt good to feel the breeze in my hair. )

Exercise today consisted of 30 minutes on the Elliptical plus some toning exercises. 

Patoo  same at our gym I've notice an influx of PYTs.  I have the dreaded crazy golden retriever back as the day after her Mom and Dad picked her up after their vacation he had a serious car accident and broke his left leg and right shoulder, he's just been released from hospital and they're scared she'll jump on him so that being said four dogs mean that even though I washed the floors on Saturday today they look like it's been a month ... Lots of little paw prints, sheesh!!!! Nihahi what is chinooking?

Did a Sh'bam class this morning and then tonight rode the only kind of bike I can, the Spin bike for an hour 

Reporting in:  70 minutes = 8 miles EFX - ruined the hard work with spaghetti afterwards.  ugh!  Tomorrow is a new day though.  

So I never ever got to my taxes last weekend.  Met with my trainer saturday morning, working on arms, then off with hubby to do several errands, including getting a new phone and exchanging my broken fitbit. Sunday I spent walking around a travel show with a good friend, we are planning a trip to Alaska for 2015, and got some good ideas.  Trying to stay away from the giant cruise ships, if anyone has experience with something smaller please let me know.  We also want to see Denali, and get some fishing in somewhere.  Met with trainer again yesterday, this time legs.  So I've been back to regular exercise now for a couple of weeks, and it is amazing how much better I feel.  Why oh why do I allow myself to become a face stuffing slug every winter?  Even my jeans went on today with no problem, just out of the wash!  Not sure if I will get to taxes this weekend either   having a March birthday party for hubby and 2 friends at my house Saturday (corned beef sandwiches, yum!).  Maybe Sunday...  at least I need to start!

Core & Pilates.

Oh!  I didn't know what a chinook was either - I thought it was quilting!  )

I've heard that temp changes and seasonal changes can trigger headaches due to the change in barometric pressure.

I guess we are chinooking here too.  54 yesterday.  Snow tonight 3 to 7 inches.  I knew winter wasn't over!

Ruth I love your reference to "real yoga people".  I've been two times and I'm not sure I get it, but maybe this will grow on me like meditation did. 

Did my stair-walking routine today at work but not doing any more.  This daylight savings time change is kicking my butt. 

So far today:  Yoga on the couch.  Consisting of sitting with legs on couch, bottoms of feet touching each other and knees all the way down to the couch cushions. Sat that way through an episode of New Girl.  Note: not advisable to stay in a position for that length of time.  )  Dancing with the Stars starts on Monday - I think I'm going to teach myself how to do the splits next.  lol  Yes, I've had quite a bit of hot green tea today. 

I love this:
