July is right around the corner so I thought I'd start a goal check in for us.

1. Get out of the 200’s
2. Eat two servings of fruit a day
3. Walk up at least 7 floors to my office once a day (I work on the 17th floor)
4. Get at least 12,000 steps a day (fitbit)
5. Continue C25K program with my dog
6. Play tennis twice a week
7. Start P90x3/T25 morning routine
8. Get the butterfly swimming stoke down

So what are y'all going to do?

    Okay, so I just added the C25K to my goals for July. I have participated in three 10Ks in the last three years but I have ruptured my lower back on both the right and left sides. I train with the YMCA during the first of the year to participate in the Ukrops 10K in April. Then I usually stop training but the C25K application seems like it will be a good addition to my workout so I am encouraging others to try it too. Start out where you are right now and then lets see our temples reap the benefits. Here's to all of the 5K participants of the future!

    Week two and encouraging any lady who wants to add some variety to her cardio, to download and workout with C25K. It will change your routine workouts as you train. You don't have to be training for a marthon to use the app but I think you will want to continue training after you are done. The app is free and the benefits, if you are willing to stick with them, are priceless! Hope everyone enjoys a wonderful and peaceful week. Hoping to see you at a marthon sometime in the future...

    i have met my first goal--hurray!

    However, my knees are in pain from the running-- I think I will have to amend the C25K to make it Couch to Power walking a 5 K.

    As for number three, I am going to try to make up for the lack of outside time riding by adding a few extra rides this week.

    Wish me luck!

    The C25K training is going well. Today began the 1st week of more jogging. Since my lower discs are ruptured, running is no longer part of my workouts. However, jogging is and so is the elliptical machine. I workout on strength training three days a week, these are the same three days of when I do C25K. Try strength training first and then C25K after the training session. It builds some endurance. Then add going back to the gym in the evening for another hour of cardio (treadmill & elliptical) three days of the week.

    Sometimes it seems like a lot but I do enjoy the challenge and it definitely works off the stress and leads to good night sleeps. Hope others are meeting some of their goals and enjoying them along the way. Here is to a healthy week Ladies!
