Thursday Strength Workout/Running in Place 30 minutes

10 minutes running in place, 10 minutes standing abs work, 10 minutes leg work (leg lifts with weights, calf raises, etc.).

I found that Sorsha takes a slightly longer nap in the morning (this time 30 minutes) so that I can work out. Other times of the day, she seems to only take "cat naps". I hope she keeps it up! I was hoping to go walking, but the heat and humidity just felt brutal today :P

Working on it

I have stopped taking the dogs out for jogs. It's really hot, and I'm really tired. However, I am still doing a lot of dancing on the wii and pilates. I'm also cutting back on the sweets and the eating.

I bought a swimsuit yesterday. I didn't want to bother trying it on with three kids in a dressing room, so I just bought it, and as I tried to pull it on at home, I ripped the tag right off. So I guess I bought it! And it's S.N.U.G. So I need to lose a bit of weight to look halfway decent on vacation.

Everyone- I need some weight loss magic! Vacation in two weeks!

Thursday

I biked 40 minutes on the bike in the basement then I ran 1.5 miles just to train the transition. I'm glad that's over!

Cardio Kickboxing 30 minutes

We had a lady who teaches kickboxing at the YMCA come to our RS activity and kick our chicken. I have never done that intense of a kickboxing class. Woot! I got some major happy hormones and I felt great all through Eclipse (which some of us went to watch afterwards).

Sat & Tue

Saturday I ran in Nauvoo. I don't know how far it was. I ran for about 55 minutes of stinky hills.
Then I walked all around town pushing Clayton in the stroller.

Today I ran for about 40 minutes. I started out strong and ran kind of fast because I had a time limit this morning. About half way out the heat/humidity started getting to me and I petered out. Oh well.

Monday Strength Workout + Running in Place 30 minutes

10 minutes arms, 10 minutes of abs (including 100 crunches), and 10 minutes of running in place.

Also- ended walking about 40 minutes on Sunday getting to and from the fireworks. Saturday-cleaned for a few hours.

I missed working out last week because I was sick. I hate being sick! I'm hoping to get back into running so I can stop getting sick all the time. Grrrrrrr.

Mixing it Up

Speed work out today. 4 - 1/2 mile bursts and 2 that were not 1/4 mile bursts. I was just done.
