2.5 miles, two of them running on the treadmill. My heel is tolerating it pretty well, after both Achilles tendonitis and PF this past year. I'm signed up for a 4 mile race in April, so I'm hoping this continues.

@Awesome Kar!
Wouldn’t you know it, my fourth grade boy who gives me and his class so much grieve hands me a bag today with candy and a desk set that says #1 Teacher.
My husband surprised me with flowers and purchased lovely meals for my dad, him and me. How nice. Salmon for me, steak for him and BBQ.ribs for my dad. Perfect ending to a wonderful day.

@Dean: Kick that cold soon!
@djmichaels: How lucky for you to have lots of twins. Their mother is a twin of an identical twin sister.@Kar: I agree..loved to squeeze those cheeks. Wish they were closer to us. These were pretty early preemies but have finally caught up to normal size.

It is so good to come here and read all of your postings! Love it & the photos are always so nice, cute or funny! You all make my day!!
I've been holding up pretty good actually. The shoulder is still a little tight I'd say but doesn't stop me from classes & the heel is doing great! But like I told my class (to their amazement) that I turn ((59)) the end of March & with all I've done & what all I've pushed my body through these past years that yes I'm going to have some major aches & some pain with it!!
I been moving my @ss with my classes and have gotten 14.5 from the ex bike and 8 from walking. My younger son got here tonight from Arkansas and said "Mom your getting to skinny!" I'll have to post a new pic and see if you think so!

A very slow day yesterday sat in the car. Upside was a fabulous visit and lunch with my SiL and her hubby. The day before .... listless and full of cold, barely managed my constitutional walk into town (so I’ve not included the full distance).
@clepant - the twins are so sweet

I recently had a review with my GP which included blood screening. It seems my cholesterol ratios are edging towards too high. The nurse rang me to talk about lifestyle changes to improve the ratios. She asked if I could increase my exercise. When I said “I don’t think so” she went to great pains to explain the benefits. She then responded to my “I run 3/4 times a week, 50/60m a month in winter” with “ ....you run .... oh”. Then when I said 2 hours of Pilates and 1 hour of body Pump” she said “... you run...”.
She agreed that I did plenty of exercise and I laughed, a lot

@PDFRAZIER08 - No worries! Glad to see you've been busy!
@KAR328 - 70F?? That sounds like awesome motorcycling....er um....ANYTHING* weather!!
@VHUBER - Win!!
@LEANZ - Take it super easy tomorrow and listen to your body. Good luck!
@K80FLEC - YES, you DO run!!!
Glad to see so many of you moving and mostly enjoying it, save for the various aches and pains that come along with it. I've been doing really well for the last month and a half with being super regular with my workouts and I'm still waiting for my body to feel much, much better that it does! I did 6.0 miles on the stationary bike today, about 0.5 mile on the StairMaster (medieval torture device!!), and a 0.5 mile cooldown walk on the treadmill.
My Valentine's gifts from my Sweetie were for the motorcycle, yet still very heartfelt and romantic.
She sent a picture that an artist sketched with a pencil and then it was turned into an etching on a cover for the side of the engine. I love it. It has our names and "Est. 2015", the year we met. She loves riding on the bike just as much as I do and for me, I enjoy it even more when we're together. The other smaller cover with the USMC logo on it is pretty awesome too! They're both mirror-like finish and super-shiny. She's the best.

What lovely gifts @Dave - you both look gorgeous. I hope you were equally romantic. It’s fab to see you posting that you’re doing more too. As for the aches and pains, I refuse to accept that they are an age thing.
At our recent club awards night, look what I got .... my Bronze standard. I’m sooooo proud of me!!

First, congrats on your medal and numbers, that's impressive.
Second, the above was perfect timing. I have my physical in a few weeks. I emailed them today to ask about certain labs I wanted drawn as well as how long I have to be fasting. My appt is 2pm and I'll be working all day (as well as boot camp class that morning). I spoke to the nurse (weird to talk to the one who does the exact same job that I do) and she said fasting wasn't extremely necessary, but it may up my triglycerides a bit. she looked at my labs and since they've been within normal limits for a while now, we both decided it didn't really make a difference (but the idea of no food wouldn't be a pretty one). I got a laugh out of it since not too long ago all my cholesterol, triglycerides, HDL and LDL weren't normal. It's both the diet changes and the exercise. I'd have loved to do it today, HIIT class was harder than usual ("it didn't seem that hard on paper" - the instructor who's also my trainer) and I burned a lot more calories than normal.
Adding 1.7 miles from the class and laps before it.
