Disney Daily Birthdays – July Exercise Challenge

[lisah0711]

We are having unseasonable crazy heat here, too. I've been having to do my training plan runs in the morning when it's cool and then run a shorter run with running group at night because running more than a mile when it's in the high 90's doesn't work for me. Make for some awesome numbers though! 65 minutes run/walk which brings me to 183/1000.

I love the monorail birthday! One of the best monorail rides we ever had was at DL when you could still ride in the front at night going back into the park and seeing IASW lit up in it's holiday spendor.

Keep up the good work everyone!

That is awesome!
I've actually never ridden the monorail at DL (I hadn't ridden it at WDW either before a few months ago), but it's something I want to try to do on my next trip out west (of course, no riding in the front anymore, and the holiday decorations won't be there if I go in August or September, which is the current plan, but ... it'll still be nice to see the park from the monorail).

40 minutes today, 20 on the exercise bike and 20 minutes of core, which was made more difficult with my dogs trying to help.

88/1000

45 minutes strength training and then later 50 minute yoga, which was super fun to do with 800 firecrackers going off in the alley .

250/1100

Today's workout was a booty boot camp, upper and lower back work out, and lower back stretching for 110 minutes

160/1400

Sooo, I made a major booboo here haha. It was an hour and 10 minutes, not 110 minutes. Oops

Today's workout was a HITT cardio/abs blend for 45 minutes so that brings my total to 165/1400 for real this time

25 minutes for yesterday - We actually went to the mall before the stores opened to walk in the air conditioning. - So I'm up to 60/620, right on track for my 20 min/day, but no cushion to be lazy today. (Then again, we'll probably have to park so far from the fireworks tonight, I won't be able to help getting in a good walk!)

Not at Disneyland, but at Disney World, we did get to ride to ride in the front of the monorail one trip. DS was five, and had no idea you could do that until we got in. He had a blast!

I am adding 40 minutes. 25 minutes run (with walk intervals - great tip @SarahDisney!), 5 minutes warm up and 10 minutes cool down.

75/800

Also picked up the foam roller that I ordered and tried it out. Not sure what I think of it... I find it a bit difficult to properly roll my muscles. I guess I need to find better instructions - or watch the DVD that came with it!! Does anyone of you have a foam roller and can recommend some good instructions on how to do it??

Tried taking my dog out for a run. We made it about a mile before he quit on me. Would love to keep trying to work with him on it, but I know it'll be a sloooooow process.

Did another 5k this morning and shaved off two minutes from last weeks time! 50 minutes

[swissfamilyrobinson]

60 minutes of walking. So many folks in the neighborhood shooting off fireworks. There is no telling how much $$$ some of them spent - they were pretty fabulous and quite entertaining while we were walking!

60/900

Happy 4th of July!

 

[galaxygirl76]

30 minutes of kickboxing brings my total to 195/1400. I'm already sore, tomorrow is going to be fun haha.

 

[SarahDisney]

10 minutes for me on Friday (nothing Saturday)

I'll update the first post in the morning (along with 2 days worth of birthdays, since I missed July 4th!), but I wanted to share some exciting news ...

OUR TEAM IS NOW DISNEY CALIFORNIA ADVENTURE BLUE!!
At least according to my spreadsheet we are ... I'll have all the official update (including some great color changes and our first Animal Kingdom Orange) some time within the next 12 hours. I hope.
