 Good Morning!  The rest of you have probably been up for hours, but I'm getting a slow start after staying out late last night. 

I bet some of you are already done exercising!  My plan is to walk the lake (3.5 miles) in a few minutes so I need to hustle and get dressed before my walking  buddies arrive.

I had a great yesterday.  I want to report that I hiked for 1.5 hours.  Up and down STEEP hills,  bigger than I've done in years.  While I had to go slow on a couple of them, I didn't need to stop and I was able to talk the entire time.  I was so proud of my lungs and heart.  I'm planning to do it again tomorrow morning!  In the afternoon i sunned and swam for 40 minutes.

So what's your plan today?

Hi Lee!

I had a late night too and am just getting around myself.  Went to a motorcycle event then out dancing with some ladies I met last weekend.  We had a great time.  Going to do it again tonight.

It has finally stopped raining!  I'm going to get out and get a nice walk in today.

 Hi Jody,  I'm glad you had fun last night.  Don't forget that you can count dancing as exercise.  It's a great way to keep moving.

Enjoy your walk.  What a great way to clear your head.

Hi Lee,
I did 10 minutes on the eliptical and 20 on the bike this afternoon.  I plan to do it again later this evening.

 wow - I leave for one day and look how busy you LWs have been!  

First - major congrats to Shannon!  My inspiration...

I went for a run outside today rather than the treadmill, and must admit that I loved it soooo much more.  But a run outside in the Catskills (where I was this morning) is very different than trying to pull that off on the crowded sidewalks Greenwich Village, alas.  

Anyway, I'm not sure how far I ran, but it was definitely farther than usual.  And I feel great this afternoon!

 Great job running Rosa!  Yeah, I can see how running on the streets of NY with everyone out having coffee could be tough.  You must have had so much fun in the Catskills!

Hikes with hills are the best!

I haven't done anything yet today. We are painting our house. I'm not really working that hard, but I'm stuck here helping. I may try to get in a hill walk or a hike tonight.

 Painting is hard work and being the gopher is even harder most of the time.  I hope you got some time to yourself to have a walk.

Lee...what up!!! 

I have been just moving around walking around the house. I even went out for a nice breakfast this morning with my hubby, son, and father in law. Probably the first full real outing and I can sit without much pain. Each day gets a bit better...sooooo....

I cannot wait until I can go for a nice aerobic walk!! Instead of hobbling around the house....

Keep up the great job LW's!!
