Gym is Open (Marching Monday) 8/4

And a one, and a two...

The gym is open!  I am getting ready to march to the gym for treadmill work and strength training (strength training is MWF).

Even if you don't do formal exercise, feel free to march wherever you go today so you can burn additional calories.

What did you do to move your body today?

with 107 yesterday and the same on tap for today, I was in the gym early to get my workout done before the heat set in.....  For some reason I had trouble getting motivated, but I still stuck with it and did my 30 mins on the elliptical.....

Hopefully Edouard will bring us some relief from the heat without doing to much damage to the Gulf Coast.....

Karen, I heard on the radio that the heat has been particularly oppressive in TX lately.  Any chance the hurricane can bring much needed rain without messing up things?

(grateful that our streak of scorching weather is due to end tomorrow)

Follow up appointment today at 3 and hoping to be released to do anything, really hoping she'll say I can start going back in the pool!

I have made 2 trips to the restroom this morning, and I walk around in circles in the hallway 5-6 times before coming back into the office. It's an extra 400 steps I'm adding in each time.

I was driving home yesterday and saw a petite woman walking two Great Danes.  Had they been party colored, I'd have sworn you came to town and didn't invite me to walk with you!

I'd never do that to you Kix!  Of course I'd never travel with the beasts either!

You wanna walk one your welcome to come visit anytime!

Someone once asked my 280 pound former linebacker hubby why he had such big dogs? His response - "Could you see me walking a Chihuahua?"

I went to the gym at lunch - did about 30 minutes of upper body strength training, focused on large muscle groups, then did 20 minutes on the rowing machine.  Can only go to the gym once today, so wanted a little strength training and a little cardio...  All in all, an excellent mid-day break.

I went to the gym this morning for a change. I used the treadclimber for a half hour and was ready to keel over - splat. Its unbelievably freaking hot in Texas. August is always dreadful but this is the worst since I moved to SA. Its just so darn thick and still, hotter than heck, and inside is the ONLY way to go.

I marched my butt back to sleep when the alarm went off.  I do this at the end of every semester.  Procrastinate and then I get to do nothing but school.  Will I ever learn?
