Labor Day Challenge!

Chocolickkyss

Good morning everyone and happy Saturday. Yesterday my flight was delayed an hour due to what I thought was hurricane Earl but when I arrived in NYC I found out they did not even get a drop of rain. The only thing I can think of was that there must of been strong winds. Anyway, I arrived in New York at about 9 PM. My cousin picked me up and then we returned to house where she and I along w/her husband stayed up to the wee hours of the morning laughing, talking and I can't lie......drinking and eating chips. I had a blast. We've not done anything like that in about 3 years. Today we plan to hit the city in hopes of doing a little sightseeing and then I think we'll try to shake a tailfeather tonight. I going to try to make some healthier choices when it comes to my food but I can already tell it's going to be difficult.

Today is week 4 day 6 of the Chalean Extreme program which means it's a cardio day. Instead of completing that workout I rocked out Core Cardio and Balance from the insanity program. I really like this workout b/c it's a full body get your sweat on workout but the pace and duration are very sustainable and do not bother my knees as much as the other Insanity workouts.
My cousin and her husband are suppose to complete this very workout w/me tomorrow but we'll see if they chicken out....LOL.

Good afternoon everyone! Today is my last full day in NYC b/c my flight departs first thing in the morning. My family and I went sightseeing yesterday and had a great time. It was a very long day so we pretty much crashed upon our return to the house. This morning we got up and my cousin and her husband decided to try their hands at an Insanity workout. I threw in the Core Cardio and Balance dvd b/c it's the easiest of the series. They gave it a go for about 15 minutes before they both decided I was on my own. I completed the rest of the workout alone. I'm glad they at least gave it a try.
