And a quick update on Bandit. The hematoma is almost completely gone. He is mostly back to normal but when I put my hand up high on his leg I can still feel the hardness of it so I still take it pretty easy on him altho we are back to about normal exercise together.

@RangerRickL it's really weird, there are many things I wanted to try but when I wanted to write about it, I couldn't think of anything. I should write down somewhere whenever I feel interested in doing something so I can remind myself later.6 -
Things that I would like to try this year: axe throwing, trampolining, archery and on my bucket list are to drive an exotic car in the Xtreme Xperience , see the Chicago Bulls play in person and participate in the Insane Inflatables Obstacle race. But what I was up at 5 am doing after the exercise for the day was trying to find a personal trainer near me to guide me in strength training next month. Never be afraid to dream big. With work, some of these dreams will come true.9

Exercise: yes, bike ride 25 minutes, cardio 30+ minutes.
Tracking: yes
Calories: yes
Pass days used: 0/3
This afternoon I spotted two people practising riding unicycles outside my house – I live at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac which has a long footpath with a convenient fence for grabbing hold of. I took a photo and WhatSapped it to my daughter. She replied that I should ask them to let me have a go. That would be something new to try!

@thabit11, so true love your idea! “ it's really weird, there are many things I wanted to try but when I wanted to write about it, I couldn't think of anything. I should write down somewhere whenever I feel interested in doing something so I can remind myself later.”
One thing that comes to mind is run a 5k with my daughter and 10 year old grandson. I’ve ran a half marathon with my daughter before. My grandson asks a couple times if I would run a 5k with him....6 -

Great news about Bandit @SummerSkier!
@biketheworld Loved your love story yesterday
@Beautyofdreams Loved the future visions you shared today
My "something new" is actually something old: going back into a gym facility. I haven't had a gym membership since 2015 but now that I'm actually wanting to lift heavier again it's something I want to get back to when it is safe to do so.

I think I need to call today a pass day. We got Chipotle and I built a bowl that stuck to my calorie goal in theory - assuming their portion sizes were what they claim they were - but as I was eating it I was thinking this burrito bowl maker was generous. So, in theory not a pass day but I feel more comfy calling it a pass day than not.
Exercise: Yes - 1 mile walk, 3 mile ugly run. Ugly run = I ran my neighborhood since my running trial is covered in two feet of snow and my neighborhood is a giant hill. My average HR was 169 and I averaged an 11 minute mile. 😂 Hills are the devil.
Calories: No, see above
Tracked: I mean kind of?
Something new. Hm. I’d like to be able to do a pull-up. I was a great athlete in high school/college, but pull ups were something I couldn’t do in the best of shape even back then. I want to do one to prove to myself not only am I in as good of shape as I was in my athlete years - I’m in better shape!11 -

@SModa61 @Bovaryoo @donna25trinity My protein today was 32% and my goal is 35% so that's a big improvement. Thanks for your help ladies 🥰
@SummerSkier so happy to hear about Bandit's healing ❤ I grew up riding everyday after school and I miss it so much. You're very lucky 🐎
@MaltedTea thanks for the advice I'll check out the forums
As for something new, I had a dream I was skiing downhill on Hunter Mountain and enjoying Tequila Sunrises afterwards with friends and it felt great. So that's my something new when possible.8 -

✔️ EXERCISE: Yes. Today I did 60 mins on the treadmill at 3.6mph.

I'm glad that Bandit is better! Thanks for the update!
Something new that I'd like to do? I'd like to find the time to learn how to Belly Dance. I think that it would be a great workout!! I'd also like to continue building up my speed/time on my c25k and eventually turn it into a real 5k (perhaps by my 60th birthday in May!?) and even a 10k (I'm "shooting" for a Turkey Trot on Thanksgiving 2021)6 -
