Giving Thanks and Getting Fit - November Exercise Challenge!!


255/1100

Gratitude - Today I'm thinking of my parents, both in their late 70s and still very active. I am grateful to have them, and I have enjoyed some short trips with each individually, and gotten to hear stories of their childhoods and the early days of their marriage. While we were by no means a perfect family, I appreciate their lessons and their sacrifices.
 
59:49 [thank you official timing;)] for my 10k race this morning. Plus a decent walk too and from the start area and jumping around waiting to start in the cold. I'll call it 90 minutes total. 670/1750.

My race went well, it was for my proof of time for the glass slipper challenge. Now it's on to Avengers next weekend.

Finished my 5k at 37:11. Couldn't jog the whole thing, but still did better than the last race I participated in. Two more months until the Star Wars 10k.

317/1100

I'm thankful for the Denver Veterans Day Festival. The parade was nicely attended, and there were a lot of deserved "thank yous" to our nation's veterans. And I was able to participate in a Quilt of Valor ceremony where we presented 5 veterans with warming, healing quilts. The vet I draped with the quilt was a recent Iraq/Afghanistan service member who just kept saying how beautiful the quilt was and how much he loved it. I assured him he deserved it.

DH and I went to a new mall today while DS was taking a class at the zoo. (We didn't want to drive home and then drive back.)

So I did 15 minutes of dedicated walking before the stores opened, and a bunch of on-and-off walking while shopping. That was probably about another half-hour's worth if mushed together, so I'll estimate I'm at 145/500.

I'm thankful for spending time with DH :love: and that we got a little Christmas shopping done early. :santa:
 
20 minute walk with my dog this afternoon. 355/900

Today, I am so thankful for the fact that the dog we have been searching for was found around 2pm! She has already been to the vet and other than losing 6 pounds over the 8 days she was lost, she is in good shape. So relieved and thankful that she is home with her family tonight!
 
Fri: 50 minutes of cardio/abs blend, another short cardio/abs blend, and lower back toning and strength workouts
Sat: 55 minutes of abs, standing abs, body weight cardio, and pilates workouts
Sun:: 40 minutes total body HIIT and 4 hours later another 20 minutes of total body HIIT

total: 360/1200

I just had one of these tasty pumpkin treats yesterday and I was very impressed. I'm a bad influence, I know, but this was so yummy and really tasted like Pumpkin Pie!
