Slacker

Well, is it possible I haven't been on this blog since February 13th??!!! Ouch, very, very ouch. The Capitol 10k is looming......oh my!!!! Anyway, I've worked out a couple of times this week (not today) and WILL work out again tomorrow. For this week I did a spin class for 50 min, elliptical for 20 min, treadmill 10 min, upper weights 15 minutes, and flexibility for 20 min. Great work Maureen and Keith on the workouts!

Diving In

Ok! Big night for me tonight! The first official night at the new gym, and a plan to swim in the never-ending pool! (Of course, first I have to finish work to actually get to the gym, and the amount of work I've got ahead of me this afternoon, it doesn't look very promising!)

I've been hyping up this pool for months now, and I hope I don't sink! I hope I can figure out the controls on the water - as my husband so supportively said this morning: "you know you're going to get in there, set the water pressure too soft, and then hit your head against the wall."

Haha! It just might happen!

I just hope I can keep my head above water!

Push Ups

Good Morning! Haven't run yet today, but it is on my list. Have a 100 push ups done so far today. Still hoping noone walks into my office while I am doing push ups on the floor. Guess I can say, "Stress Reduction" since saying "I gotta have something to post since I am not running" won't really make sense to anyone. So here is my cop out post. I did some push ups, that's it. Dang it!

The Winner is ........

Okay, I am back. Scott threatened me not to call him out regarding old habits from days gone by so I am cowering to his greatness and succumbing to his superior knowledge and athletic ability. Mostly humbled by the fact that most of the stories that I was gonna call him out on included me as well. So, let's not talk about those too much.

Back to the blog. Did the Habitat for Humanity run on Saturday. This is the one that Scott ran with me last year, but I think he may have forgotten this year. I should have reminded him. Oh yeah, I did! Ooooops! Anyway, I won the race. My first win of a major competition. True it was a walk-a-thon and I was actually the only person running, but that doesn't change the fact that I was first to finish and got to break through the finish line tape. Oh yeah, there was no tape but I got the loudest yells from the crowd waiting at the finish line. Oh yeah, there wasn't anybody at the finish line since everyone was still walking. Okay, maybe I have said enough about my big win. Still finished the five miles in 42:36 so I was happy.

Let the posts resume!

Carrying

I don't think I can carry all three of you on the CapitOl 10k, so you all better get back on this blog!!

Allow me to introduce myself

Hi people! Not sure if anyone is out there! I'm shouting for company on this blog, but it's going unanswered!

Today will be my last day at Curves! Kind of sad, kind of exciting! Joining a new gym close to the new office starting tomorrow. I hope, without the help of the exact workout, I can still keep it up!

Thanks to Keith for two great runs this week in DC. Wish we had been able to pull off our mini-training of running in the afternoon, next morning and next afternoon, but I wanted to get you to stop crying so I agreed to just two afternoon jogs. Maybe next time.

Hangin' in there

I'm going to keep posting, even though I don't think anyone is out there!

Had a decent run this morning - didn't feel good running, and it started to rain half-way through, and I thought I was going really slow, and then when I just google Pedometer-ed it, I ended up with 4.5 miles. So, I'm ok with that!

Rich

Scott's current Facebook status:
"Scott is back in the saddle...and amused that Lance Armstrong had his bike stolen, had a flat tire, and then crashed at the Tour of California."

So, Scott, you're ok smack-talking Lance Armstrong, completely oblivious to the smack-talk going on over here about you?

That's rich.

(Haha! Almost put that as a comment on your FB status, but not sure that's the spot for public ribbing. Over here, though, well, that's all this blog is about!)

Thanks!

Thanks for updating the spreadsheet, Keith! I've gotten some good miles in this month, but not real speed. Maybe tomorrow!

Last Day Scott

Okay Scott, I have given you a reprieve since you are my new Texas Hold Poker hero but today is the last day. If you don't post before the day is over I will start releasing the secret files. A few hints: "Fluish" (and I have a new story about her by the way) "Black Socks", "Give me the Keys", "Sure you were reading your Bible", "Brad" and those are only the ones that you probably want me to bring up compared the the other stuff. So, get out the laptop and post your workouts. The clock is running!
