July Exercise Challenge...Jump In!...Everyone Welcome!

[disneymom1980]

Yesterday I did bridge to 10k and a little extra for 90 minutes. I had a personal best on the 10k of exactly 70 minutes, not great, but pretty good for me

Dang. I don't think I am going to make my goal this month. Can I drop it to 1000 instead of 1500! Lol. Even that seems to be a challenge.

I have added 200 minutes swimming

30 minutes of gardening this morning
15-minute mile-long walk outside this afternoon followed by the 15-minute 1-mile Walk Away The Pounds

Gosh, today's the 20th already...not sure I'm going to reach my goal for this month. Better get cracking on it this week!

1350/1800

I have been trying to get out and move but have to agree the heat has been a bit of a problem. Most of the above total has been walking (not much fun running in the heat) and bike riding.

I did my duathalon today and it was not pretty. A totally disorganized race. This was the first year she added the du to the triathalon and she just could not get both races worked out together. Then I had someone get mad a decide to clip me and send me into the bushes.

I think I will stick with Disney races from now on.

Yikes! Sounds like some of you are having a hard time getting the minutes in this month. No worries! You're still doing more than the sad saps who are still sitting on the couch!

And to get us started on another (egads!) Monday...

Today's exercise - 50 minutes

No running allowed on Monday's right now, so I did a modified P90X routine for 50 minutes.

July tally - 2323/3000

 

[mrsdrake625]

Adding 35 mins yesterday
and 41 mins today

so that's 233/500 so far. I can live with that.

We moved this month (last time for a LONG time!), and we are finally in our house after the longest closing process EVER. We moved out of our old house July 3!!!! visited with my parents for a few days and drove across the country with U-Hauls... then spent 11 days without a home and stayed with relatives. Holy crap. Never again.

Still in tons of boxes but finally back to a semi-routine as far as exercise and food. I have bad reflux because of a hiatal hernia, which I can normally control through diet but the past month has caused it to really flame up - heavy lifting, alcohol (staying with relatives that drink wine every day!), high fat foods (convenience food) and bad sleep/exercise habits, dehydration... started on prilosec again and hopefully this week I can get that under control. It's a very sharp pain in my pack, not normal for the GERD but apparently a possibility with the hernia. (anyone else dealt with this??)

It's amazing, though, how much health is affected by diet and exercise. Going for a run today felt so good after being so unhealthy this month.

Hope everyone's doing okay after the heat wave we had.

30 min run this morning. Sure glad I have a shoe dryer for my shoes (really meant for hunting boots). Since e dew is forming during my 5 am runs my shoes are soaked at the end of the run.
