    Bailed on my bike ride yesterday (burned out and not making good decisions after a rough day), so I rode today at lunch and will do today’s scheduled yoga just before bed.

    Ooooh Thanks! I love Jambalaya and Gumbo too!

    I should add that I didn't do the slow cooker with the chowder recipe - I just made it all in a pot on the stove - cut up the raw chicken and cooked it with the veggies - took about an hour total since I just let it simmer for a while so the flavors would meld. IT was still awesome.

    Yeah - I've found that either method works for most soups and chowders. The slow cooker is great for a meal that doesn't require any stirring or tending.

    I hear you. I managed a short walk while my laundry was going. I might do another short walk before bed but that'll be late

    The kids are home for a snow day, which would typically mean a lie-in for me. But the snow and ice won’t be here until about 9am so I took the opportunity to get out while I could. Hit treadmill at the Y for 3m. Back home by 8am!

    No Hammer and Chisel today, just a 5-mile slow and easy run.

    Had a swim today, which was a nice change of pace. Did some warm up laps, then 5 x 50's with paddles/pull buoy, then 12x50's @ 1:20, then 12 x25 @0:40, with every 4th effort in each set done as fast as possible. After the cool down laps, the swim totaled 2250 yds.

    The best thing about swimming is that there is no pounding during the workout and not soreness after, just some fatigue. :)

    Never got this one. I start beta next week. I'm a bit scared to be honest.

    Beta's not too bad. Gamma is pretty rough though. :p

    Had my "crossfit" cardio session today. Made it through it all, kicked my behind. Good workout though.

    Bad leg is cranky with the booties I decided to wear, but too bad, it can just start getting over itself :|

    Hi all, the past 3 days have been brutal, with very little of anything physical on my part. I really need to snap outta that funk!

    I almost skipped today's workout. Alarm went off, and I decided I needed a day off. Reset the alarm for 2 hours later and rolled back over to go back to sleep.

    Then the other voice kicked in with all the reasons why I should be at the gym.

    Got up, went to the gym.

    Yup, this was this morning in a nutshell:

    Way to go! No one ever regrets the workout they do....only the one they don't do!

    Chisel Balance today. It's an odd workout, but I like it.

    Got up stupid early to meet a deadline, and struggled with it until 2pm. Then I threw my laptop out the window (although I may have imagined that part), and went to the pool. Just me and the lifeguard. It helped. I’ll get back to work soon. But first: Coffee.
