Okay, so I did not lead the team off the line this week. Yesterday was my scheduled day off, and I was going to work out anyway so I could be great day one, but... I fell asleep on the sofa.
Today DH and I (and the dog) walked outside--about 40 degrees, way colder than I meant for it to be. We did 2 miles and about 40 minutes in the neighborhood. DH confessed as we were about to do lap 3 (one mile laps) that his legs were actually starting to hurt!
He's a natural-born endurance athlete who has been taking it easy for the winter. He has promised to start working out with me more so he can drag me through races.
Tomorrow is my long walk day and then I'll be working out all week. I need to see if I can get into a yoga class....
Sandy, the logo looks amazing! Thanks! And thank Tim for all that snow shoveling!
Matt, wow! Congrats on the race today and all those miles yesterday--amazing! I can tell you will keep me from getting lazy!
Shan, you did a great job! I haven't come anywhere near that far--tomorrow will be my longest walk ever--I'm going for 4 miles (maybe 4.5).
Leana, rest up and feel better! It's a long competition--your health comes first!
Allyson, woohoo! I hate the elliptical, so you have impressed me! Six miles!
Excellent work team! I'm so impressed by how hard everyone is working on this! We'll get 'em tomorrow!
