Thursday Running 3 miles (35 minutes with 2 Hills)

I ran around my mom's neighborhood while she (and V) watched my kids since V was home sick from school today. V makes a good baby holder, so I did not have to take him out in the rain in the jogger.

Wednesday JM 30 Day shred level 2 + extras (35 minutes)

JM w/ 10 lbs and extras with 20 lbs. I'm sick, the kids are sick, today was kind of blaaaaahhhhhh. Also- 30 minutes planting iris bulbs. Yay for some gardening done during fall gardening season!

Monday Running almost 3 miles (35 minutes)

I think I was two blocks shy of the 3 mile mark. I blame the earlier workout for pre-tiring me ;)

Monday JM 30 Day Shred Level 2 + extras (35 minutes)

I'm still using 10 lb free weights with JM and a 20 lb weight for the extras. I wonder if I should up the weights for the "easier" exercises (back of the shoulder, top of the shoulder, triceps, and chest) since I'm doing 3 reps of 10 with them as opposed to 3 reps of 5 with the biceps and back of the bicep? I might try to make a 30 lb weight with the weight set I have to add some more strength to my strength workout extras.

Saturday Running (1 Hour)

While pushing the jogging stroller. T was good the whole time! 

Notes: (so I can get T to be that good again!). 

We started on the Wanda Rd side of the Watershed trail which is sunnier. 

I brought a WHOLE PACKAGE of graham crackers, and he munched on them the whole time. 

I brought an apple, but he did not want that.

That was pretty much all he did between playing with his toy was eat crackers.

I brought T's large linky soft toy with us. 

I put a blanket on him and on the tray at times which he played with.

It was about 60 degrees and sunny.

I brought binkies and a sucker even, but I used neither of those. I might try the sucker again in the future in case he gets cranky.

I did not feed him a big breakfast, just a banana.


I brought a noisy toy, but he did not like it. Maybe in a few months.

He woke up about 10am.

Friday JM 30 day shred level 2 +10 minutes extras (35 minutes)

I seem to be getting stronger using the 20 lb free weight (along with the 10 lb weight used for the JM workout). I'm going to have to look up when I should start increasing the weight, or how often. I don't think I've ever gotten heavier than 20 lbs though? It's kind of exciting ;) Also- my back problem that made skip my strength workout on Wednesday seems to be gone. It hurt in the same place where I sprained/strained my back 10 years ago, so I was not wanting to mess with that.

Thursday Running while pushing the jogging stroller (1 hour)

It was fine except the last 20 minutes the binky got lost, and there was screaming. Oh so much screaming. Oh, and I had to take a rest day yesterday because my back was bothering me.
