15 mins on eliptical
10 mins on gliders (those things are HARD)
45 mins of lifting - calf raises (machine), lunges, squats, and backwards lunges

New total:

Hope yall are having a great day!!!

 

[indygirl99]

I think I may have to increase my goal.

An hour of Zumba (for a warm-up ) and an hour of Werq tonight brings me to:

Great work everyone!

Between walking by myself and with my power walking pup, lifting weights at home, and practicing my pacing in my walking class, I've managed to add 438 minutes these past few days. I might actually be getting used to this humidity - whoda thunk it!

That brings me to 1249/2000.

Thank you again, Ted, for all of your hard work!

Tonight we did 60 mins of P90x.

New total 340/1200

Hello everyone. Another scorcher here. It's still 94 degrees and it's 11 pm!! Just got back from my walk, 84 minutes tonight. Had planned to try and do some faster intervals to start increasing my pace a little bit, but it was just too damn hot! So another pretty slow walk, but at least I'm moving!!

757/1000

I wasn't sure where to set the goal at the beginning of the month, but I'm kind of psyched to see that I am going to exceed my goal this month and show myself that I can do more than I thought I could!

Have a great night everyone!

80 degrees at 5:30 this morning... but I ran anyway 4.1 miles in 53 minutes.

Total now is 1010/1600

All progress through here is updated in the first post.

Great job everyone... it sounds like the weather in the whole country is trying to interfere, but we're all doing it!

Have a great day, everyone.

It was too hot this morning, but I went for it anyway. Just finished a 25 min run on day 3, week 6 of C25K, plus a 60 min walk, plus 35 mins of warm up, stretching and some weight training for the arms. Altogether, it adds 120 mins. Not to mention my fastest mile, longest and furthest run/walk yet.

New total 320/1200. I don't know if I'm going to meet my goal but I'll keep trying!

 

[Rose&Mike]

I am at 1020/1600.

Thanks!
