Adios, 2015!

I walked out 2015! Just didn't have the energy to run today but I wanted to do something on the last day of the year. So I spent 30 minutes on the treadmill. Started at a 3 incline and ended at 4. I didn't walk super fast, but it was good enough to get my blood moving! Goodbye, 2015! You were a good year!

I'm so behind!

I've been so slacking on posting! But I have been exercising, as you know! Today I ran 20 minutes, at a 5 pace. 10 minutes at a 2% incline and 10 minutes at 3%. And more tomorrow!

TM is busy this week!

With 3 of us using it nearly every day the old TM is really getting a good workout this week!  Glad to see that it's working so well.

I've been doing my usual 2 miles plus pushups and situps.

Back At It

After two days off for Christmas I got back on the beast this morning.  It still works so I had to do the whole 2 miles.

What a run!

I love your treadmill! Really solid piece of equipment! As you know, I did a 30 minute run today at the Deloach Gym. I ran at a pace of 5. I did 2 minutes at a 3% incline, 2 at 4%, 2 at 5%, then back down and back up again. It was good - challenging. But the 5% would be done by the time I started thinking "What the heck am I doing!?" Thanks for the setup!

Lazy Reporting But Not Running

I've been running every morning here but have just gotten lazy about reporting it since your arrival!  Good to have you here!

Brrrr!

Little bit chilly when I left for my run this afternoon! I was comfortable by the time I got back here but not warm, that's for sure. Busy day at work and then I ran errands so I didn't get to run until after 3. It was good though and my muscles are twitching now! Bart gave me a fitbit for Christmas! It has been super fun to have. I didn't wear it when running though, because I want to keep my everyday walking separate from my running. At least for now. I have only walked like 2000 steps today! 6000 Sunday and 5000 yesterday. It's been eye opening! See you tomorrow!!

Adios, Gym!

I had a good visit to the gym today after work. Did all the usual stuff and I also did 15 minutes on The Stairway to Hell, which I haven't done for awhile. That felt good. It was pretty busy there today, but I got all my stuff done and didn't have to wait. I think that I'll switch between treadmill / floor exercises when I'm at your house. I'll do pushups, squats, lunges, and abs. Sounds like we might be running outside!

More of the Same

Took yesterday off but got back on the TM this morning for 2 miles and then my exercises.

Yes, we are all decorated!  Come and see.

You had a busy weekend!  Such a party girl!

Getting Back On Track

I did run on the TM both yesterday and today and did some pushups and situps, too.  I should have gone outside this morning.  It was 40 at 6:30 am!  Very mild.  But I went downstairs instead.

I ran!

Work has been really busy and chaotic. I didn't get any running done yesterday! Today I did run, though. Push to production tonight (maybe....) so I won't be up to much tomorrow! Good run today, though. Really nice out and my time is not good but a tiny bit better. It for sure isn't worse!

Texas x 2

How long has it been since you've seen that as a title?! It's been so long. I don't know why I got the tickle to do it today, but I did. And it was hard! Not gonna be a big girl and say 'challenging' or 'difficult'. It was HARD! But, on the plus side, on my first trip up (at about 1/2 way) I thought, "Well, I'm only going to be able to do this once." But, in fact, I did it twice. So that was great! I've been searching all over for a picture of an old fire truck I saw today. It looked kinda Model A/T-ish, but it had a closed top. And it had silver pipes attached to the side. It was super neat looking. I tried to weigh myself again today but I just need to get a new scale, sadly. Or maybe that's good! But it just doesn't work. Oh, catch up: I ran on Thursday and went to the gym yesterday.

Streak Comes To An End

I have been running every morning this week and doing well.  So I packed my stuff and planned to run here, too, on their brand new treadmill that I was told about the other day.  However, when I arrived I see the new treadmill laying on the basement floor still mostly in its box!  Guess I won't be running now until I am home again on Tuesday morning.  I will see what the temperature is in the morning but I didn't bring my long pants or long sleeve running clothes so it'll have to be pretty warm!

Gym times!

Good gym visit today. Busy there, though. I'm sure they're all the same people who always go but our schedules just don't always align. They probably saw me and thought, "Who's this lady using my machine?!!" Lots of squats and lunges today. I'll feel those tomorrow, for sure. No snow here for cross training, but it sure feels cold. I say "feels" because I know it isn't actually cold! I've got to emotionally prepare myself for real deal cold here soon!!

Cross Training

We had about 3 inches of the wet, heavy stuff overnight so I cross trained this morning by shoveling it!  Glad it wasn't more.
