Back to the gym!

Well, today was my first day back at the gym in a week. I can't believe that it has been that long. It was challenging. But I kept my weights at what they were last session and just dealt with it. Otherwise known as 'sucking it up!' It was good. You know I love that place. Also did the Stairway to Hell for 20 minutes. Very sweaty. My vampire book is not a romance novel.....yet! I'm keeping my eye on this!

2 days worth

I've walked a mile north and run all the way back at a good clip now for 2 mornings.  Humidity way down so felt great.  Plan to up the mileage by Monday.  Have to get back into the routine.

Good run

Well, I did have a massage today. Yay! But that meant that I did not have time to gym. But I did run. And I made the cut - I just missed the too hot time. Thankfully. Listened to my audiobook and I'm still not sure how I feel about it. We shall see! Anyway, that's my report. Run and massage.

Ouch, me too!

Are we old or something?!  No way, not possible!  Right?

Boy, I didn't sleep at all last night.  No idea what the deal was.  Just a lot of flopping around.  Which is sad because I went to bed at 9.  But I did run today.  And I have further sad news!  I'm done with The Martian, which is sad in and of itself.  But the other sad thing is that I think my new book is a vampire romance book!  I thought it was going to be about a lady who becomes a powerful magi.  And I think that might still be true.  But there may also be a vampire romance involved.  Soooo.........I'll give it one more run before I return it to audible.

Anyway, I ran.  And tomorrow will be gym unless I have a massage.  I think that's actually on Thursday though.  So that's my plan!

Sore Foot

See, this is the way it goes.  One morning it feels ok and the next it doesn't.  I did go for a brisk 2 mile walk this morning but my foot was bothering me the whole way.  I didn't try to run partly because of that and partly because it's so humid out there!

Something to report!

I slept in a little this morning and because of that we missed church.  So, because my right foot was feeling ok, I decided to walk north a mile and run back and I did!  Had to walk briefly at the half mile mark because it is so humid out there!  But it feels good to have done something.  My foot is bothering me now though as I sit here so I don't know.  I will just have to take it one day at a time and see how much I can do.

Another big update

I have not been posting but I have been doing things!  Today was a bigger day than usual because it was a gym day. But I am also soooooo close to being done with my audio book. I had 1 your left. So I went over to Texas after the gym. Still have a half an hour left! 

I haven't run hold for so long.  Made it up 2.25 times. Walked that last .75. It was hot and hard!

So I'll finish tomorrow. Then what???  I will need a new book!

Welcome home. I missed you!

Check in!

I've not been reporting in but I have been running! Yesterday was not the best. I didn't go until 4:30 and I was hungry and tired. Today was way better though. Fun and enjoyable. Although hot. It was good but I just feel so static. Complacent. I want things to physically change for myself by they just are not - and I'm not making too many changes to ensure they do!

Great Gym!

You've heard it before, so prepare yourself. Love my gym. It's great. I went today and did a bunch of things that I've never done before. Because my old gym was so busy I couldn't get equipment time! Anyway, it was good. Lots of leg stuff today. Wonder how sore I'll be tomorrow! I also ran yesterday, but I think I forgot to report that.

And Again Today

It was about 70 already when I left the house at 8 am so pretty warm.  Did my walk/run 2 miles.  Beautiful morning except for the temp.  Wonder if I'll ever really get back to running form.  Having my doubts.

Back on the Road

I got back on the road this morning and did the 2 miles but it was slow just like you say you are.  Walked and ran.  It was warm when I left but don't know how warm.  Glad to be back at it though after traveling for most of this week.

Happy to hear you like the new gym!  Makes it easier to go when you like the place. Also glad to hear that Bart is getting better.  That's taking a long time though.

Another bulk update!

I went to the gym yesterday and I am so glad I changed. Really like that place. My triceps crazy hurt today! Ran today, felt better than the other day although it was still really slow. Alas!

Gym sore!

I went to the gym yesterday after we got back from Jacumba. It was a little bit busy!  But I still got on every machine I wanted. Really like this new gym. I feel like I'm not making do any more but can use what I actually want.

I ran today.  A bit of a struggle probably because I didn't sleep great last night. But I did it.

I sure am gym shoes today though!  Not as bad as last week, but I did dial it back a bit from what I did last week. I could hardly walk after that session!  Anyway, sore but not that sore.

Listening to The Martian not now and I love it.  Both the story and the reader.

Feeling a lot better.

Doing My Best

But I'm finding it hard here.  Maybe it's the altitude.  I'm running most mornings and walking when I don't run but I can't run the whole 2 miles here yet.  It's been too warm for one thing and I think the altitude really makes a difference.  Now this week we'll be traveling over to Kalispell Monday to Thursday so don't know how much I'll get done.  Hard to run when you're traveling.

Glad you are better and have found a new gym!  Where is this one?  And how is Bart's back?

And Finally!

Dang was I sick! I'm still imperfect but substantially better. So I ran today. It's been so long! And it took so long! Very very slow pace. But I got out there and made it and didn't have to stop to cough or blow my nose. So that's good! I'd say "happy long weekend!" but I know your life is just a complete long weekend now. But it's a long weekend for me and I'm thrilled.
