^^ SO true!! It goes in so quickly and so easily. But the burn on a really hard workout seems so measly sometimes. But, my body amazes me. I can put so many calories into my body in such a short amount of time, to be honest, I'm often just really surprised that I'm not much, much bigger than I am.
Well, waiting at home with lil girl for DH to bring son home from school so I can take him to his lessons and hit the gym. Since I didn't go to school, I'll generally burn a little less today. But I'm also not going to run to the gym either (weather, tom, unfed, wanting to be fresh for my workout for a change, etc), so that will really cut my activity today too. So, I guess I'd better make my gym workout count.It's upper body, which is so weak for me, so I want to work really hard to build those muscles. Will still get a good walk on: to bus, to tutor, to bus, to gym, to bus, to tutor, to bus, to home, and later to son's taekwon-do and back.
Have a good one! Hope it's sunny.0 -
Okay, scratch all that. Clouds disappeared and it was so gorgeous, that I couldn't not run. So got in my usual ~27min run warm-up/cool-down and a good upper body workout. :happy:0

I was sick last night. Don't know what hit me. I went to bed at a reasonable time, but then got up multiple times through the night, feeling miserable with a stuffy nose and head. Then, due to that, I slept through my alarm this morning. It's been years since I've done that. Two hours late to work, which I'm going to have to charge to vacation.
I promised a friend that I would check out some puppies for her tonight. Good part: Puppies! Bad part: an hour drive to the breeder's house and then another hour home. If my report is good, my friend will drive up from North Carolina to get one on Wednesday.
So no exercise yesterday when I had time and not much likely today because I don't have time. Not good. I'll try to squeeze a bit in today during work and after I get back from the breeder's house.0 -
Jealous about the sun!!! Been overcast here all week and more is predicted, we normally don't get this weather in a area that normally gets sun most of the winter even if cold with snow around, now no snow, just horrid overcast foggy stuff...ugh!!!
Going for short drive loop around the mountains to get out later.
Not sure which exercise today first.0 -
Jealous of the beautiful day! Glad you were able to get outside for your run Sherry!
Jealous of the puppies! Are you feeling better Donna?
Marla I hope you get to see the sun soon!
It is sunny here but again ridiculously cold (dangerous to be outside cold). Trainer session after work tonight and I'm walking with a friend at lunch today so I'll get some steps in. Usually I run on Mondays but since I bumped my weekend run from Saturday to Sunday, I'll run Tuesday/Thursday this week.0 -
Scratch that...exercise that is for the day and hopefully not more! Was moving too fast and I stubbed big toe bad enough not just to have pain for a long time but it got swollen, so sitting here foot up with ice pack.
Obviously rest day!!0 -
Donna, hope you're feeling better. I've heard puppies are good for that.
Laura, I don't know how you cold area people manage. I don't think I'd survive. I just hope "The day after tomorrow" movie never really happens! Keep warm and enjoy your walk and trainer session.
Marla, ouchhh! I know that feeling. I've lost a big toenail twice in my life from stubbing (luckily it grew back every time, but the stubbing is enough to bring tears to your eyes). Hope it feels better. Hope the sun visits you soon too.0 -
freezing here. 2 hr late start at school. Should have exercised a bit more than I did. I did about 20 min jump jacks, squats, push-ups. and a little free weights. Need more going to try here in a bit. Didn't get home until late and feel like just trying to catch up.
Hope your toe feels better.
Jealous of the nice weather!0
