Hello!

I'm proud I pushed myself and got outside to do my cardio walk. I had a rough night last night and got out of bed later than I like to but I still pushed forward and walked (took my dog with me too). He normally walks nice and calmly next to me but today was tugging and pulling the whole time. He gave my arms a work out too and I actually feel it in my left armpit.
I'll have to rest with legs elevated this afternoon so I don't swell too much......

Hope you have a great day and will share with us what you are proud of......

Hi Ruth. DH is feeling a little better with his bronchitis so he pushed the speed of our walking up a notch last night - so I did a very brisk 5 mile walk - and I was sweating like a pig when I finished. We'll be walking tonight too. I think I should bring a towel to the mall LOL

I miss not having a dog - we had to put our baby to sleep a few years ago leaving us with just cats which aren't too keen to go out for long cardio walks. I hopw your dog goes easier on your arms - after all you don't want to mess with such perfect arms now.

I hope everyone is having a good day too.

Sky, you just made me think about something that never occurred to me. I don't think I've ever seen a cat being walked on a leash. Is that even possible?

yep, if you have a lot of patience and a co-operative cat you can train them to walk on a lease. They use a harness, not a collar like a dog and the lease attaches to the harness that lines up on their back near their shoulders.

I've seen people walking cats - but I like to think that my cats are too smart - truth is I'm too lazy to waste my time training them. We used to travel a lot with our cats and they always wore harnesses and leashes when we travelled with them in the car.

I finally made it to the health club today!!

I had not been to HC in over a year. I had a wonderful workout and felt really good. I wanted to stay another hour but I did not have the time. I will be going back again tomorrow morning. Thank you all for inspiring me to go back to health club. I always wonder what makes me stop going because I do love it once I get back into it. I am so happy I finally reached this goal this month. Now that I went today, I know I will continue to go 3 to 4 times a week.
