    Hey everyone!

    Sorry I have not posted much this week....trying to wrap up my work for another month is always hectic. Next week should be better (hopefully)

    So here are my numbers for the week:

    Wednesday:
    40 minutes elliptical
    30 minutes-walking

    Thursday:
    60 minutes elliptical
    30 minutes walking
    60 minutes circuit training

    Friday:
    60 minutes elliptical
    30 minutes walking
    60 minutes biking

    Saturday:
    60 minutes biking
    30 minutes -other (walking mowed the lawn with the push mower)

    Sunday:
    150 minutes biking (should be been longer but fighing a 25 MPH headwind makes it ten times tougher. Not to mention I broke something in the gearing so I basically had to keep pedaling or the chain would fall off)
    50 minutes-walking

    9 glasses of water each of those day.

    Total
    870 minutes-145 was strength training and the rest was cardio
    7506 calories per MRP


    Found out today that my name was drawn in the RAGBRAI lotto so I am gearing up for that the last week of July. In case you're wondering that means I will be riding across Iowa over the course of 7 days with about 10,000 other riders.

    Hope everyone had a great week!

    Well it's event time for me so.... Here it is 13,228 cals burned this week and I don't know exactley (as I'm exhausted) but something like 35 hours. It's been a nutso weekend of 18 hour days running through parks, standing, and moving things. Only 5 more hours tomorrow. Then 3 days till my Relay For Life event.

    I've eaten like crap, going way over on sodium and did not drink near enough water. I suffered from edema and cramping so really did focus on consuming more today. It's hard as you're so busy plus the bathroom situation isn't very desirable if you know what I mean. :)

    I consumed my calories in horrible fair food from vendors that want to feed the "help" so to speak. :)

    Amazing how many people out there will/do eat fried twinkies though...and they had fried oreos... Wow... Didn't eat any of that.

    Love y'all and keep up the great work.

    I'm going to drink my water and eat some fruit and veggies..
