Fitness Challenge - December 21

Good morning LW's

How are we doing so close to Christmas? I have more shopping and cleaning and decorating. Oh yah and a nail appt this morning :) hahaha

What did you do today or planning to do? 

Have a great day stay warm and safe and have fun this lovely day!  

Went to Curves this morning and when it warms up a little more, I'm planning on working Chili.  Tailbone is still hurt from the fall and I'm trying to stay nice to it so it will heal.  Chriopracter doesn't want any floor exercise, lifting, etc but life has to go on.  So I'm trying to hit a happy medium.

I'm sorry about your fall and your tailbone life does go on but don't overdo it while finding that balance. What do you do with Chili? When you work him...

Take care of you ok...

Today was weights day, so I did a 30 minute fast walk on an incline, then 30 minutes of weights and core exercises.

Sounds like a great workout!!

3.11 mile run this morning at a moderate pace. I will likely do some arm weights or elliptical tonight. I'm having a few aches and pains, so I want to take it easy. I have a half-marathon in 1 month, so I need to get out there lots over the break.

Wednesday is my last day in the office until January 3. I will do some work at home next week, but not much! So, that leaves me very open for fitness. I can watch for those sun breaks and his the road. :)

Awesome on the upcoming 1/2 marathon!! What is your PR? You did a 1/2 a few months back right?

I'm still afraid to pick back up running in fear of another prolapse. I should just get back to it since it's been more than 12 weeks...we'll see after this 5 dpt.

Well keep up the great job!! You are doing awesome!!

Hey there -- yes, I did my first 1/2 marathon in October. My time was 2:30:03. I feel like I am in pretty good shape, but have struggled for a couple of weeks with the longer runs. They sure take a toll on me! I do love the fact that I can run -- not sure I love running yet though. I want to keep it up and keep my legs healthy so that I have an additional tool for maintaining the weight loss.

Don't jump in too soon if it's jarring. There are lots of other ways to get exericse. I am amazed at how many people I know spin.

Hi Diana!

I *think* I've finished wrapping presents, etc, for Christmas.  But if past Christmases have taught me anything, it's that I've forgotten something or someone.  

I went to my 2nd ballet class this week (went yesterday, too) and plan to go tomorrow morning. I had a big breakthrough in my posture - my teacher was new today since I don't usually go on Tuesdays, and she showed me a way in which I had been standing improperly on my arches.  Now I've fixed it, and I look SOOOO much better!  That was huge.  

So it was a good day, though I'm a bit sore.  Tomorrow's the last class before the holiday.
