    Yesterday played with my two grandsons visiting. Did my 10,000 steps.

    Sad to see them go this morning. :'(

    Went for a short run this morning (22 minutes!!! When the hell did that become a 'short' run?!?) and I'll do my walk at lunch. Stupid FitBit died with no warning this morning; I just hope it got my run in!!

    Weights this morning; triceps and chest. Walk this afternoon, if it's not to cold. It's supposed to hit a balmy high of 5 degrees Celsius.

    Angelfire, I remember when you said you were about to do your 20 minute run with your couch to 5K program and weren't sure about that. Yeah, when did 20 minutes become your "short run?" You make me so proud!

    The reason most people fail instead of succeed is that they trade what they want the MOST for what they want at the MOMENT.

    I walked my 3 miles yesterday but then did a strength training cycle at home (it's my 7 minute basic moves) and then did another 2 mile walk at night. I stayed under calories for the day and didn't eat any exercise calories) and I drank all my water.

    ( I don't have or use a fit bit or count any of my other steps, just my purposeful go out and walk time and pace from Runtastic; sort of why I'm not in the walking challenge thing)

    Today I've done 2.5 miles this morning. I've avoided the office treats so far. There is still pizza and cake today, but I have my jar lunch. I'll be good.

    I can only jog for one minute 20 seconds before fire engulfs my lungs.

    Angelfire OH MY GOODNESS 30 frickin' minutes? YOU GO GIRL!!

    :) I love the variety of exercise and how we all challenge ourselves.

    Today was the most challenging line dance class. I walked the dogs longer than usual in the morning and in the afternoon :)

    You'll get there Eninad! I started running at 40 and have been running on and off for 9 years now. The longest i have run is 6.2 miles (10k) a few times. My dream is to do a 1/2 marathon, just once.

    Weights with my trainer this evening. Back and biceps. And then trying to pull together some semblance of a Halloween costume for tomorrow.
