    Week of 7/18

    Monday = Rest
    Tuesday = 40 minutes = 428 calories
    Wednesdy = rest
    Thursday = 85 minutes = 922 calories

    Didn't run as fast as I normally would have, but I finished the miles. In this heat, that's a major victory!!!!

    Be safe everyone!!!!

    I totally agree on this being a MAJOR VICTORY!!!:flowerforyou: Just keep the water by your side on your hip!! Awesome job!! I don't know how you do it but I see people out there jogging and running. More power to them. I am staying indoors!:bigsmile:

    Wednesdy = rest
    Thursday = 85 minutes = 922 calories
    Friday = Rest
    Saturday = 110 minutes = 1262 calories
    Sunday = 40 minutes = 398 calories (so far, this may change if I get in a bike ride later!)

    So this was all running and felt really great! I'm training for my first 1/2 marathon in September and next week is a taper week which means just 4-4milers instead of all this crazy mileage. Then it starts back up again the next week. Looking forward to an "easy" week!!!! Of course, I'm working extra for someone... so it's not like it will be easy!!!! LOL!

    And thanks Kim! I have actually lowered my goal weight twice now. It was 140, then 135, now I'm saying 130. I haven't been this small since college and I'm not sure how much lower I will go, but I feel great, so I'm going to keep going! Seriously, if my body says this is where it wants to be, it's fine with me!!! I'm in a size 6 for the first time in forever!!! I started at around 180, so don't give up!!!! You can do it, because if I can, you can!!!! My motto for the last 6 months has been "more jogging and more logging"... just keep going! It's totally worth it!

    So I finished the week with 275 minutes. Not my best week, but it's fine. Just didn't do a lot extra when it was 110 degrees outside!!! Should do better next week. On the upside... I did burn... 3285 calories this week!!! I'm happy with that!

    GOOD JOB EVERYONE!! Considering the HEAT I think we all are to be commended!! Even for me working out on the inside it is still more challenging. I don't feel like moving because some days it is 80 degrees early morning. So lets say YAY for giving it an all out effort! :flowerforyou: I don't think I actually got my minutes in all month. But I am not giving up!! I have one more week to go for it!! Are you all with me?? Let shoot for it one more week. Just put your best food forward!!:flowerforyou:

    Monday, Rest day, post warrior dash
    Tuesday, Shred #1 27 minutes...150 cals
    Wednesday, Shred #2, 27 minutes...197 cals


    Total: 54 minutes...347 cals

    This is kind of pathetic. Thursday, I'll be doing No More Trouble Zones. I'm really behind this week and not sure it's going to get better. I'll keep plugging away although I just feel so tired. That means I should rest, right?!

    Andrea, thanks for the cheering....glad to hear from you!!
    Nikster, your runs are AMAZINGLY crazy
    Go :drinker: Mollie :drinker: Go

    Time to update my week:

    Monday - 156 minutes (C25K, walk, yardwork)
    Tuesday - 120 minutes (yardwork)
    Wednesday 300 minutes (C25K, walk, yardwork)
    Thursday - 150 minutes (walk, yardwork)

    My yardwork is excessive this week as we decided to install an above-ground pool by ourselves. This week has been shoveling and raking a crushed stone layer, and then a sand layer for the base of the pool. Lots of shoveling and raking. I figure it counts as both cardio and strength! I did manage to get my dog out 3 times so far this week, and she is very appreciative. Tomorrow is Week 6/Day 3 of C25K - 25 minutes!!
