Gym is Open (Monday 4/7)

Oh, boy!  It's Monday! Time to get cracking.  Time to burn off the sins of weekend noshing.  Let's move those bodies as if we mean it, because we do! What did you to do move your body today? Kix

Good Morning Kix! I'm up and at 'em and going strong as usual this morning! 15 mins elliptical 25 mins weight training We went to the car show this weekend and walked the whole floor twice with only one small break for lunch.... it felt great to not only be able to do that, but to WANT to do it..... LOL

I know what you mean, Karen.  I went to the auto show when it was here in Denver last month and I enjoyed walking around and looking at every car.  I also enjoyed being able to get in and out of cars without worrying whether I'd get wedged behind the steering wheel! Did you have a particular favorite?  I liked the Camry hybrid. Kix

oh I don't go to actually car shop.... I go because the DH likes to see how many of the tiny cars he can actually sit in..... LOL  At 6'5" and 335 lbs that is a TALLL order sometimes..... LOL

Sign me up for burning off the sins of weekend noshing!  We played poker Saturday night and I spent most of the night noshing.  Then I lost the battle with the peanut M&Ms yesterday while sitting around watching television.  I definitely have sins to burn off -  So, I'll do a 2-a-day today.  Upper body strength training and core work at lunch, then 60 minutes of cardio after work.  Hopefully that'll help burn off a little sin - Kellie

The important thing is, Kellie -- did you win?! Kix

Did my normal for Monday - total body strength training.  Will do ab workout tonight when I get home. I went shopping this weekend because of the rain and was really speeding through the mall in between stores.  I used to have to stop and take a break while shopping at the mall.  Not any more!

Fun, isn't it? Kix

I'm tired... really tired. But in a good way - I've been working HARD to get myself ready for my first Adventure Race in 2 weeks. This week I will be doing double workouts and lots of cross training - I'm hoping to see a difference. This morning I ran 2 miles then did a one hour spinning class. I LOVE the teacher, he's very yoga-esque and motivational. I'll be doing this most of this week, the race is a combo of trail running and biking so I am trying to get my body use to the quick change of running to biking and vice versa. I get my mountain bike this weekend so I'll be getting outside more after that - yeah!!!

OK, I feel like a piker next to you.  Running two miles AND an hour of spinning class?  Kix
