I did 60 minutes of Nautilus machines this morning - my arms and legs feel like limp noodles.

I'm at 770/1800.

I think I have everyone up to here. Have a great day, challengers!!!

40 minutes on the treadmill last night brings me to

265/700

I'm going to try and get one more workout in before we leave Sunday for WDW but if I don't check in before we leave have a great healthy week everyone and I will plan to pick up where I left off when I return.

jillbur · 10-12-2012, 09:14 AM

This hasn't been a good exercise week for me-too much going on with my kids. I forgot to post on Wed. I did 35 minutes on the elliptical.

Total=315/1200

Thanks

649/1700

Since I didn't have to work today, I walked with my 5:30 AM friends and then again with my 7 AM friends. 6 miles total before 8 AM! My family thinks I'm crazy for getting up so early on my day off, but it was so worth it! Yesterday DH and I got all the apples off the tree since it's supposed to rain today (first time in months!). I counted 10 minutes of that as exercise. Was sitting on the couch last night and noticed my hips were hurting. Figured cuz I'd been sitting there an entire hour!

Then realized it was from all that bending over. DH got up on a ladder, took a hockey stick and knocked down the high ones! Now I have to sort them into ones for applesauce and ones to give to our friends with horses.

Busy day; glad the exercise part is over!

Great job, everyone!

Kristin - Have a great trip! With how fit you have become and all the weight you have lost, I can't wait to hear how much more enjoyable this trip is for you. You are going to outwalk everyone you are with!

Linda - Apple picking sounds like so much fun, but I know it's exhausting with all that bending and reaching.

indygirl99 · 10-12-2012, 10:20 PM

60 min hike in the gorge today before the rains started. Yeah it finally started raining now I can breathe.

240/1200

jillbur · 10-13-2012, 08:40 AM

Just ran/walked for 37 minutes in 37 degree weather. Brrrr.

Total=352/1200

tedhowe · 10-13-2012, 09:31 AM

103 minutes of running (9 miles) this morning pre-dawn through a beautiful sunrise. It was a brisk 32 degress when I stepped out the front door. I', finding that I really like running in cold weather.

Total for the month now stands at 653/1600

Hoping the legs recover enough by 1PM to get in another taekwondo class today before a true rest day tomorrow.

fitgirl36 · 10-13-2012, 09:47 AM

Thanks Jillbur and Cam! Well I snuck in a 40 minute treadmill workout at 6 am this morning so that brings me to

305/700

Off to finish packing now and calm my nerves about traveling!!

keenercam · 10-13-2012, 11:16 AM

This morning was the first race of the season for the Special Olympics athletes I've been coaching. We did the Run/Walk for the Buds which benefits the Down Syndrome Association. It was the slowest 5k time I've ever had as I stayed with two of our walkers, but it was so much fun and it was a gorgeous morning!

My new total is 830/1800

Chicago262 · 10-13-2012, 02:19 PM

An hour WERQ class this morning followed by an hour on the treadmill brings me to:

840/2000

Now I'm off to work on my responses for the Disney Mom's Panel...I made it to round two

(I was like a little kid yesterday jumping up and down when I read my email...does that count as exercise?!?). Need lots of
