Fitness Fun - April 16th

Good day LWs

I had a chance to sleep in and wow...felt great. Today I am going to run at least 3 miles to round up my weeks mileage in running to 12 miles. My calories burned this week should easily top 3500 calories which is 1 lb of fat. I can't wait until the heart rate monitor sends me my little graph and adds it all up...that's tomorrow though.

I hope you all have a great day. After going to do my run, I'm going shopping yay

After the rain left, the sun came out and it warmed up.  We still have a heck of a wind but I got both ponies driven out on the road.  Every place else was way too wet.  Biltmore trails were closed due to high water around the river.  At least we got out.

That's awesome you got to take the ponies out. I bet they missed you over the past few days. And you stay safe!! 

Got in an hour in the garden, mostly weeding and picking up last year's black plastic mulch. After yesterday's 7 hour marathon in the yard, I'm taking it easy today. Just some Wii tonite.  Someone suggested the Gold's Gym Cardio workout, was it someone here?  Anyway, I found a used copy and am going to cardio box tonight.

Nice...i would have to rest too after gardening marathon ;)

I hear Golds is great....let us know how it goes...

Get rest :)

Ok, my run is complete. Not the best one but it was done. I think my legs hate me...lol..and that is why it wasn't a great run. Also I so need to up date my music...I think that had a lot to do with the "mood" of the run too. Oh well...

So, I have logged 12.28 miles of running this week. Not bad for not running in over 8 months...hehe
total calories burned in all my crazy workouts this week....from Sunday to today = 3742. Whoa!! Nice. I have only eaten 6757 calories...this week....hehehe I like it.  Shows my hard work. 

Tomorrow will be a non-run day. I hope to keep same mileage but increase my stamina and decrease my running time...that would be the goal. 

Now to shower and change and go shopping...

Went to the gym and did 30 minutes on the elliptical....usually do 40 minutes but felt a little nausea and knew I was going to Biltmore House to walk around the gardens and that this would help make up for the 10 minutes I left off.  I am happy as right now I am working back up to my 4-5 x a week at the gym.....I am meeting my initial goal of 3X a week and that is pretyt good with 45 hr work weeks and being tired still post surgery ( I sleep 10-11 hrs each night on the weekends!).

Got a little muddy at Biltmore so in new clothes and off to Goodwill once I finish my protein shake (with added peanut flour.....YUM!).

Price.....I saw all tha****er at Biltmore....which explains my fall in the mud there!

Yeah, the horse trails are open 365 days, except when it floods.  Even DH and DS had to stay home from golf because the course was closed due to the rain.  Hope your clothes were ones that needed to be replaced anyway, hehe.

You are doing a great job!! Doesn't it feel great to be active? Love it. You keep up the good job but don't overdo...
