MARCHing like Mulan - Exercise Challenge

[hmack]

short lunch break workout of running a mile and then doing 'legs' for a bit and two brisk walks (one because I left my ipod in the women's locker room, so I had to walk back across campus and get it)

44 minutes

210/1000

Goodness! All this snow and therapy distracted me! Forgot to join in for March! Please put me down for 900 minutes this month.

So far 2 hours of pool therapy, and more exercising at home for a total of 150/900. Thanks!

Thanks for the congrats lovelies!

Had a twelve hour shift yesterday so was pretty sedentary. Tried to make up for it today:

15 mins skipping, 35 elliptical, 45 lifting.

135/1500. Been a real tough week, just too damn cold for me to do my usual hour of walking at work (I work overnights and its been downright frigid, 22 last night)

 

[MRS AR]

Adding minutes
Wednesday 40 min running
Thursday 20 min run
45 min elliptical
Friday 20 min run (it was a freezing, to me, 28 degrees and I couldn't last outside any longer)

270/1200. Stay warm and safe everyone.

"wow" we've got some folks who are really starting this month off Strong (with a big "S") dizzyr and SarahDisney I'm looking at you two specifically.


Channel your inner Hercules and go that extra mile, we're all headed in the right direction!

Thanks! I knew I needed to kick off the month strong because we are about to go into spring break............

 

[dizzyr]

Started slowing down which I knew would happen. The next two weeks are spring break here and I’ll be off my schedule so I’ll really have to make an effort to get the exercise in.

so what do you do when just as you start the treadmill, you go to adjust your bra strap and the little piece of plastic that connects the cup and the strap snaps in 2 - totally unfixable? well. you tuck the strap into the back of your shorts so it doesn't fly around and you hold the cup in place with your hand - switching off every tenth of a mile for 2.25 miles.

and a short walk

32 minutes

Love it! I had one morning where I had no clean sports bras and needed to run... So I toughed it out without! (Not recommended).

50 minutes elliptical yesterday; we got more snow than I expected and I did not want to risk running in that mess.

And for the last time, channel your inner Hercules in the quote of the week: I know every mile will be worth the while. When I go the distance, I'll be right were I belong.

That's the usual, Y class, swimming and walking. One of these days I'll do something different! Really want DS to start yoga, so maybe he and I will take a class together. Or maybe I can get him to do my video (yes, video!) with me.

75 minutes of Muay thai sparring for 3/7... 225/1000

Kudos to you for continuing on! I would have been out of there so fast.
