@oldDogBiking Gorgeous photo of your mountain and sky. Can't beat nature. Love that runner's plan to run the distance of his age every year.4

12 June started with maximum effort and ended the day with minimum effort.
Exercise 20+ minutes?
Stay within calorie budget?
Track food/beverages?
PDs = 2/3 left5 -
Yes 3x, but the exercise barely made it. 20 min of not too vigorous swimming. More a day of rest.6

Exercise - Yes - increased reps on my recently-increased weights, felt good.
Tracked - Yes
Calories - Yes - this was a little difficult, definitely felt a lot of cravings; if I wasn't mindful I might have binged all day. This is the second time this month that I've wanted to eat everything in sight - both times the day after eating and drinking poorly. This after-effect will have to be factored into my food/ drink considerations going forward.
Pets are the best! We're trying to convince our cat to be an adventure cat! It's rare that she'll actually walk with us, but she tolerates being carried around in a cat backpack with minimal complaining, so that's mostly how kitty goes for walks/hikes with us.

Pass day for me
My puppy is getting old and has had joint issues since he was little so we limit his exercise to the garden which is pretty large. I get to walk his stunt double sometimes though. My friend has a Labrador too who looks exactly like a young version of my Jack. My cat will occasionally follows us briefly before he goes off on his own far more important business which he tells us about when he gets home. He is Siamese so very vocal.
Too cold for exercise today on my last work day for 2 weeks, so I took a pass day. Food was under and good choices.
Starting a 5km for 5 day challenge on Saturday so the next few days are sorted for exercise.6 -
Yes x 35
-
Yes to all three.
Exercise was 25 minutes of I guess you'd call it aerobics.
I love walking - on an average day I get 10,000 steps in - often between 15,000 and 20,000 if I've been lucky enough to have time for a long walk somewhere.6 -
Have never had a dog, I love cats and we have Sanza my sons cat residing with us at the moment, she follows me to the gate then rolls over...
Exercise yes 10 min quigong, 20 min leslie sansone, 2 x 20 min walk, 240 min cleaning
Tracking yes calories yes

Pass day #1. It was worth it for some celebrations n meet ups. Back at it tomorrow6

Yes x 3 for Friday
Strategically planned takeout, so I was able to stay in track. Didn't have to work, so I did a tough boot camp, and then we went to the dog beach today and walked for a few hours in the sand. Was such a beautiful day.6 -

Well done! Is there a smiley that says 'smiling with you about the humour of an essentially not funny situation '?1 -

exercise yes
tracking yes
budget yesGot some good climb.
My daily climb average is where I like it to be. So that much is on track.
Going up my scrabbly road, I talked to a runner guy.
I drove by him on the road as I went up to where I park.
He ran past when I was getting my bike off of the roof.
I rode a bit harder than usual to see if I could catch up to him.
Caught up to him kind of by the cave.
Talked a little bit.
I asked him where he started from.
He said by the river.
So he had some miles on him by the time I got to him.
He was telling me that he just had his 29th birthday and that it was his goal to run the distance corresponding to his age every year.
I said "man-o-man!"
He was going to run to the top of the mountain so he would have upwards of 5000 of climb in that run.
After we chatted he upped his pace.
I couldn't match it. Didn't see him again.
It occurred to me that he slowed down that I could catch up to him and he could tell someone of his day's running ambition.
Other than that I pretty much had the place to myself.
I like that solitude.
I ain't totally averse to people though.
I love your bike ride stories! Some of them read like poetry!3 -

Exercise: Yes, 50 mins walk
Calories: Yes
Tracked: Yes
My favorite exercise is walking too, but alone. I am afraid of dogs and cats 😕 . My kids beg me to have a cat but I can't overcome my fear.4 -
I see I am not the only one to take a Pass Day on the 12th.
I have been hungrier than normal, so I knew a planned Pass Day was coming. However, after not sleeping the night before, my unplanned planned Pass Day was today. It was supposed to be an "under control" Pass Day, but sadly it was not. Hopefully that's out of my system for a while!!
Logged? To a point and then I stopped....that's where the wheels fell off!!
Under? Um...no, not at all!
Exercise? Yes, I did go out for a 49 minute walk. (This was before the wheels fell off!)
Pass Day #14 -
Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? Yes I ran 6 miles in 66 minutes.
Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? Yes
Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? Yes
I've been getting in a lot of running, but I haven't really been doing any strength training for months now since gym closed because of covid. But I have weights here at home so that shouldn't be an excuse. Need at least some of my 20 minutes of activity today be using my dumbbells!4 -
Yes, yes, yes
And my dog is a big part of my life. Right now she is recovering from a major surgery on her back leg and more or less relearning how to walk again. We are with her 24/7 in a confined space as she is not allowed to move much unless on a therapy walk. Before quarantine and her injury, she would go into the office with me daily. The surgeon was amazed she was ten years old given she looked much younger. I really think keeping her just as healthy as we keep ourselves makes a difference. We make sure she eats healthy, maintains a healthy weight and gets daily exercise. My black lab before her lived to be 18 years old and walked every day even as a senior dog. I really believe in the wonders of walking.
