    Wednesday night strength class. It was a rough one. Pull up holds, OH presses, rows, farmer's carries, wall sits, and waaaaay too many lunges. Calories on track!

    I did a cardio class on Monday, weights on Tuesday, a cardio workout on Wednesday and will do weights on Friday.

    Husband and I were doing 12+ km hikes every weekend, but my work got too busy in August and I had to work all the weekends. We will aim for weekend hikes (maybe 10km Saturdays and then more of a 7-8km on Sundays) through September and October - as long as the weather holds. (I am NOT a cold-weather outdoors person!)

    Stairclimber and legs at the gym. Discovered today that the max level is 20! I got an extra burst of energy when “Sabbath Mater” came up in my shuffle! Just saw Behemoth on Saturday and they totally played that! 🤘🤨
    Almost wanted to sing along...’Cept I don’t do that, and they’d kick me out...and probably ban me from coming back. 😂🤣😂

    🤘😳

    @Beeps - I love fall hikes! My plans are to do a 10k this Sunday. It's my favourite hike, with a LOT of climbs in it. I like it because it's challenging and gives me a good workout.

    My husband and I booked our holiday! We are headed to Montenegro hiking! My sister and BIL are joining us, so we chose an easier route. We should be hiking about 4 hrs / day, which is perfect. If I am going to visit another country, I want some time to enjoy the places we land in and not spend my entire day hiking through the mountain. Now, I may feel differently once I am there. lol. We are going at the end of Oct - first week of Nov. Weather should be similar to what we are having now, so perfect hiking weather. :)

    Walked yesterday! It stopped raining and sun was out, but the wind darn near blew us backward. lol.

    @giantrobot_powerlifting how'd the meet go?

    I'm doing a mud run tomorrow against my better judgement. It's a "Rugged Maniac" which already sounds like I should be twenty years younger than I am to do it, but my sister begged me, so here we are.
    Hoping to not break myself, which may be hard after helping my husband reseal the driveway yesterday. So very sore and still one coat to go.......

    Rugged Maniac isn't so bad. "easier" than a Spartan. the most challenging obstacle this year is "Barzan" they are all optional and there are no penalties for fail/skip. I've seen all ages, all fitness levels there just having fun. don't panic, enjoy!

    Took the puppy for her first extended walk out of the yard this morning. Not much of a workout for me now, but that will change. Looking forward to walking and hiking with a dog again.

    Didn't die! I couldn't do the two monkey bar obstacles (including Barzan which was insane @gam3rguy ) but besides needing a hand up the warped wall I did the other 23!
    Core class this morning too.
    Down another pound, so 4 total since I started all this jazz up again 5 weeks ago.

    Morning kids, I am dreaming of deadlifts in all of their variations (lol). I had block, deficit, touch and go and banded deaadlifts. The banded ones posed the best challenge. I must say I am looking pretty darn good in my jeans these days. My IPF approved gear is expected to arrive today as this is required to compete. Have a great day kids.
